Claret Guinea Spade comes from the bench of Samonfly.Net Contributing Fly Tyer William Lovelace.
Bill's notes:
"Northwest legend Alec Jackson has fancied up the Spade with his flashier well known versions of Arnold’s original. This variation uses a dry fly quality grizzly hackle. A hen hackle could also be used."
