There are times that I just have to break from my sometimes overly restrained illustration background and just let the thing happen. Fortunately,it happened okay this time! I was happy with it, and I hope that Jack would have been, too. Irresistible works for me. Jeff—Thanks so much for the kind comment, my friend.

I am always a sucker for bright colored head thread wraps. Nice and loose yet reads great! How about an Irresistible for this week? Jeff JB- Another beauty!

Have a great time in Yellowstone, and I hope the weather levels out a bit for you. Figured you might like that. Have a great time in Yellowstone, and I hope the weather levels out a bit for you.

Great drawing! I also like to make a nice thread head for all the soft-hackles. I apply bees-wax before whip-finish and no cement afterwards. Done right, not trapping any fibers, it's cool. I will use Sparrow as nymphs besides swinging. I may have to play with unpredictable weather in Yellowstone. I'll find more next week. But I'm sure Sparrow will bring me lots of trout. Jason,
