Here is the latest Carrie Stevens stream and it is the Demon. The Demon has some Lady Amherst tippet feather as a shoulder and I thought it would be an interesting fly to tie. The Amherst feathers can be a bit of a challenge to find some that are long enough but wide enough to work with this size streamer. --Enjoy
