You could do something like a married wing of the claret and white, the body in royal blue floss or seal, with a gray tail, on a black #8 salmon hook. Blue seal with a wide silver rib should be visually appealing with the married wing.
Red, white, blue, & gray- hmmmm...you might have to name it the 'Confederate Yankee'.

This is for the Catskill Fly Tyers Guild spring tying event, the local town high school has a anniversary this year and those are the school colors.
