You have effectively done what I have always suspected concerning this pattern! You have reduced it's size (a good thing in this case!) and then applied it to those stunning brook trout in your area! The results are fantastic! I think this would be excellent medicine on wild browns just as you mentioned!<br />Jungle Cock is one of those rare feathers that add to a pattern no matter what! Excellent, excellent post Alan! Please keep them coming!<br />DougsdenDougsdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01800383538251413175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7050365015235775568.post-23681009130194265252018-05-02T21:14:13.959-04:002018-05-02T21:14:13.959-04:00Alan, I enjoy seeing a pattern when it's wet. ...Alan, I enjoy seeing a pattern when it's wet. The jungle cock eye really shows up. I don't think there is anything more gratifying then taking and old patteren from a master like Nemes and recreating it . Then get results like youve had.
