[cool]I make and fish them both with and without wings. See the attached pic at the bottom. I did have a few "shadlets" left in my one box. In fact, the one on the upper left probably qualifies as a "fry fly"...with the long shank and the grizzly hackle.
On the whites, I have come to prefer either "fluorescent" white...or a new ultraviolet white. I think I sent you a sample. It looks kind of off white until it hits the water and then it almost glows with a bluish hue. I have really found it to be a good fish magnet.
I'll whup up a good batch of everything and then I'll run up so that we can take them out and see if the local fishies still approve.
