must be a local pattern for your area

google couldnt find one similar
Not sure, Norm. The late John Murray was the man who handed me 3 of them with that name. Definitely NOT the pattern you just posted with the same name, which, I think, fits better.
 
I like those bodies. What is the ribbing?
Thanks!

I use this for the rib.....easy to tie in, twist into a bit of a rope to start and let it flatten and widen out as you go.....lays nice and adds maybe just a liiiiiitle bit of sparkle.
Ribbed over a hareline dubbing mix and then brushed out a bit with a bronze rifle cleaning brush to make it a little gilly
