[VFB] Re:Longhorn Fly

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Hey Guys,  I already have a Longhorn Fly.  It's a specially tied Longhorn Stone Fly tied by DonO using tail hair from my Longhorn Steer, Calico.  On my way to the ranch and then cattle sale today, but will send ya'll a jpg when I return.  It is one beautiful fly, and is one of the most realistic flies I've ever seen.

Actually, Rene, I'm considering some ideas for a "Longhorn" fly to tie up as a presentation fly for my daughter and some other kids who are set to graduate with her.  Right now I'm thinking of a hairwing streamer along the lines of the Cardinal, tied in burnt orange.  First step is to dye some bucktail burnt orange, since it doesn't seem to be on the shelf anywhere I've looked.
