It was a parachute olive dun version tied by the guy who took me–his own special fly for these waters. They hit it pretty good.

Cary, Great to see you have found some time and great fishing water in Korea. Thanks for posting a report with pictures from another part of the world. I'm looking forward to some Tenkara fishing with you in the future.
