JOHN, The 3 rd. CONTESTANT is a ZUG BUG!!!! Has been a FAVORITE for a LONG TIME!!!!! It has been a TROUT FLY STAPLE FOR YEARS!!!!!!!

The weird thing about that Egg sucking leech is there was a bug that had the same colors that followed it around when I casted it .The black  bug had chartreuse patches on each wing .

Greg what do you call the 3rd fly from the left /The 2nd worked great .You tie great and am anxious to try all the others you kindly gave me .Let me know if you need any more Jesse feathers .Always enjoy scoring with something tied with those Gray and red feathers!

As long as the skunk don't bite you, 2 hours with that scoreboard is still great.

BTW this was a 2 hr effort catch .Not great by standards here but I'll take it.
