We in Scotland call this wet fly a Gold Cardinal. It and a silver tinsel bodied varient the Silver Cardinal are very effective in brackish water for brown and sea trout
Hello Mike;
Thank you so much for your comment and for your continental notation on the recipe variation. This is also a good fly here for brook trout and Landlocked salmon. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
