If you catch a fish on that you have to take a picture!  You don't see too many pictures like that anymore!!

Popham, oh the memories...
 
Yes, it looks quite good.  It lost its yellow body hackle, and of course the wing is a little compressed and out of wack, but it comes back when it's in the water OK.  It really looks like it belongs in the river -- seeing it in its element has deepened my appreciation for the classics.  Now, if I could convince a steelie, lake run brown, or even a big splake that this is something they shouldn't let go of...
 
The Popham is a cool fly, neat wing.  You'll like it.
 
Cheers,
