| Someone at a Federation of Fly Fisher's conclave gave me this
|
| fly. He said his father was the pattern originator and this
|
| was a faithful replica of his father's pattern, the way it was
|
| originally tied: "the way it was supposed to be tied," he said.
|
| I'm pretty sure this is an example of the original West Virginia
|
| style Irresistable. And several people have told this is
|
| one of Joe Messinger's flies. So is Joe the father or the son?
|
| This sure is a good looking fly.
