This fly is strikingly similar to the Goats toe i posted the other day and was linked in that thread. So i though i'd tie some up. I know nothing about the pattern, except that i looks deadly!
This is variant as i used some different materials and did two hackle versions.
Couple photos are burry, but you'll get the general idea!
