John,
thanks a lot for the cudos... I tied this fly, but for pattern and name
I've to credit Allan Fish. I guess I've tied a variation of the chicken.
I was sooooooo sure, that Allan uses synthetics for the chick <so fun to
play with the words>, but after tying the first set (lost in transit
8-(() I discovered that he seems to use bucktail. Anyway, fact is, that
my son did very well with this fly during our stay at last year's
Striper clave at Cape Cod. The Blues and Stripers chewed up most of this
flies. I had to use the regular chartreuse and white clousers as
suggested by Byard, caught my fish ... but Robert caught more!
Best

I just returned from a week in North Carolina and in all the mail was
a package of Great flies. Thank you all (y'all) since I'm going
striper and blue fishing in two days, and thank you Eddie for running
the swap.

BTW: I can't make up my mind which I like better, the name or the
fly... The Electric Chicken!!
