Remeber to use your marabou sparingly Joe. Don't be afraid to pinch off the barbules and use them instead of tying in at the stem. Although, that fly will make a great leech pattern, there is just a tad too much marabou. Remember, marabou looks more fuller when in the water.

Your tying is getting much much better though!

That is a nice looking fly. Is that a bead? Have you tried to slay some Iraqi fish with it?
