Invest in some quality tweezers and use it to strip off those micro fibres on the chenille. Works for me

I can see the advantage: A long stiff throat combined with a short soft wing will greatly reduce hook-drop; also having most of the drag in line with the hook point will let the fly rock and flash more in the current. Bryant Freeman gave me a Fiery Brown with a short feather wing and a long moose throat about 20 yrs ago. He called it a 'spey variant'. But it was tied on a 3/0 Bartleet iron - so it was more of a conversation piece, I guess. Better suited for jigging cod maybe.😄

Hey Chris...neighbours are heading to the west coast/big falls towards the end of the month. Besides the Orange Bomber, White-wing Blue Charm, and the Blundertaker, what other flies would you recommend?

Those are going to cover most of your needs. But a green machine is always good (both normal and a CBC style for low water). I would also have paddy francis. A dark wing (moose) option is smart to bring too.
