Point fly

Saw this one in the Trout and Salmon magazine a few years ago. I have forgotten the author and name of fly but the colour scheme is similar to the other flies I have shown here.
Hook: Kamasan B175.
Tail: GP Tippets.
Rib: Silver wire and pearly tinsel.
Body: Seals fur, black, red, black.
Hackle: Black hen.

All these flies are suggestive as opposed to imitative. I would like to believe that trout accept most of my offerings as food but some of the flies you see here, especially my competition flies, may stretch that point.

I have to credit the excellent http://www.flyforums.co.uk/ for advice and entertainment.
