Thanks Hans,
Looks like a neat fly. Do you know the pattern for this little beauty? Or know where to find one? A quick online search turned up nothing.

Subject: Re: [VFB] Horse Hair
Folks,
On this horse hair topic: An interesting pattern, and very popular
locally in Idaho around the town of Mackay, is the Mackay Special.
This fly, almost a compulsary pattern on the Big Lost river, is tied
with horse hair and red wool. The body is semi-woven, with a
palmered furnace hackle. The remaining hair folded back over the
body in a down wing.
I do not have a picture of just the fly here, but this Michigan
smallmouth liked it:
