Old GP
I’m heading down to Eugene, Oregon this afternoon to do a little cast-and-chat with the McKenzie Flyfishers. To keep FF&W “fresh daily” after early June’s unintentional hiatus, here’s another sketch from the “lost drawings” archive:
This fly comes from the General Practitioner family. I’m a fan of the GP/prawn style of flies, and also have a long-time affinity for the look of double-hooks. When I did this illustration, I wanted to go with a perspective that was a bit different than the usual. GPs are tied in such a way as to have a “shrimpy” profile, but they also have a strong dorsal view. I went with the latter, and while it’s not typical, I liked the end result.
