#8Gentlmen,
Thank you but I have to give credit to Brice Fabri' of France, He was the first to do Mayfly stripping guides years back. There is a wide palette of possibilities for rod jewelry, working on a Green drake nymph/hook keeper to go with the stripper. And there is also the potential for using some of Karl Faberge's techniques and processes like machine turning and cloisonne', There is a wide wide world of possibilities with components if we allow ourselves time out of the box;-0 ;-)
Mrampant, and those tall good looking ladies are the gnomes Achilles heel. ;-)
more pictures coming later today

Re: Colorado Green drake stripper
#14Very cool. Makes me think about the possibility's for a creative hook keeper...
Re: Colorado Green drake stripper
#15Holdover.
working on the hook keeper now and it is a green drake nymph that will be a stunner!! inlaid and full color it will look like a drake nymph.
