Gray Wolf's variant of the classic Stevens pattern.
I tied this one last year for streamers365 but had cause to tie it again this weekend. I like this one better. Hooks is a Mustad B17 size 2, pretty big - bigger than the Size1 10xl martineks, i believe. ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-zip7Za8IGs8/UT31HTc5P-I/AAAAAAAADU0/YMub5p4fs5g/s1023/Grizzly+Gray+Ghost.JPG");)

Have you got a Bit of foil or wire around the shank to get it down a little? the proportions are perfect. Some go overboard with those top feathers. I think you have the length just right.

no foil or wire. This hook is pretty heavy, but this one is tied for a collector so it wont see water. If i was tying it for fishing, the wing would be at the bend of the hook, not longer.
