I am just waiting on some. Having said that I have been waiting quite a while now. When they turn up I will do you one at cost. This is of course supposing that they do turn up

I always find the use of Jungle Cock very interesting, aesthetically it's very pleasing however, is it necessary? Don't get me wrong, I use it myself, not only for sewin but also split fot trout fly patterns. Does look good to me though.

It does with many fully dressed salmon flies from a bygone age, yet from many modern patterns there aren't that many incorporating them in their patterns. Some tend to prefer a dyed goose biot or some such. Would that inclusion be beneficial to a seatrout lure? Who knows? Please let a seatrout answer this post...A fly looks naked without it to me
Good points, although I have a feeling that in the main, a fly needs to lure the angler first and then the fish.It does with many fully dressed salmon flies from a bygone age, yet from many modern patterns there aren't that many incorporating them in their patterns.

Isn't that always the case, beauty always being in the eye of the beholder. Do fish see it as being the same, or food?Good points, although I have a feeling that in the main, a fly needs to lure the angler first and then the fish.
