Great looking fly. Don't know how anybody can see a size 20 or 22.

I've tied some size 20 Griffith's Gnats.  I can't see them on the water!  But I can tie them, and tie them onto my tippet.

Nice looking bug, by the way

The problem with the size 22 flies is getting the 1/2# line thru the eye of the hook.  I can't see the hook, let alone the eye.  Got a couple boxes of size 22 hooks if some one needs 'em.
