Beautiful fly. I like the exaggerated abdominal rings, which will, I believe serve as a trigger.

I've found that smallies like jig flies jigged, in other words dead drifted with periodic short but sharp upward jerks of the rod.

Grand fish. Congratulations.
Now, I really need to know more about the fly that caught it.

The "dentist" is one of my favorite flies too. Thanks for posting. BTW, what kind of floss do you use for the dental hot spot on your nymphs?

Happy New Year,
Alex

Very interesting, as always.
Could you tell us how you make the body of this model?
And, have you fished it? If so, how does it compare to your other creations?
