Do you love big bluegill?
Here's another attempt at my latest fly tying fascination, the "Darbee Two Feather."
I'm always looking for a way to use less expensive, common materials. In this case I've tied it from a pheasant "church window" and no-name stiff neck hackle obtained at Hobby Lobby.
This fly body is traditionally constructed using a "spade" hackle from a rooster, duck or goose. This feather comes from the shoulders and breast, along the sides of the usual neck hackle "cape."
The other of the two feathers is a dry-style hackle collar. Two feathers, extended tail kinda mayfly imitation. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm pretty sure the fish will like it.

I have a feeling that carps will attack this one faster than the bass or gills.
