How to Fish

I hijacked this pattern from a fellow board member who sent me a bunch of
his patterns. I really like this one and fished it quite a few times this
fall with some good success. This is one of those patterns that swings in
front of a fish and just screams "bite me, or get the heck out of the way",
and I saw fish do just that with this one. They either run like hell, or
attack it. There must be something about the color combination that elicits
a strong reaction either way. This is a pretty straight forward fly to fish.
Swing it down and across and hang on!
