The kids watched as I caught a brookie. They gathered around and I showed them the fish, and one stepped on my rod and it broke. I just now had it repaired. This rod is a Avid 6ft 3wt.

I had to do a double take at the fly. My first thought was its a (Mickey Finn). Looked closer and saw some similarities, but, a different streamer with good color combinations. Beautiful Brookies.<br /><br />BTW, I just posted a picture on my blog side bar of a recently tied Mickey Finn with Ice Dubbing. Give it a look and let me know if you think the Brookies would like this one.
