Thanks to thewlie for pointing me in the right direction. I tied this on a keel hook as in his post "Stacked Blonds" with the hook point up. Trying to come up with a pattern that looks like a stupid/easy pickings stocked trout. any help or critique you can give me  |

Awsome looking fly my only suggestion would be to get that big blue spot near the gill plate. Either way I am sure it will work and looks amazing! Kudos.

Great pattern, my only suggestion would be to put it on a tube. Pike are notorious for grabbing a bait & swimming off with it before they munch & swallow, putting the hook farther back should give you a better hookup ratio. as well as making the fly a little less likely to get trashed on the first fish. I just thought of one other advantage for a tube, it will help hide a wire bite tippet. good luck with it.

Those would work pretty good down here for trout too. Nice tie.
