thanks for the advice canyondiver, I'm only a freshwater flyfisherman now. I'm hoping that sometimes in the summer I can take a shot at fishing for stripers on the fly. The ingredients for this fly are:

hook: 4/0

Thread: black

Large brass eyes

Tail (in order that I tied it): black marabou, 2 dark grizzly saddle hackles on the side, 3 extra long dun saddle hackle on each side, and one stiff pair of black hackle on the outside

Body: black Chenile

Beard: flared black deer hair

God grant that I may live to fish until my dying day,
And when it comes to my last cast, I most humbly pray,
When in the Lord's safe landing net I'm peacefully asleep,
That in His mercy I be judged, as big enough to keep.
