I ran across the Laramie and instantly thought this would be a great fly for cloudy/muddy waters. All the dark colors and the silver flash will definitely get this fly noticed when the water is not so clear. I like the deep wine color of the tail as well as the body. If you enjoy matched tails and wing in your wet flies then give the Laramie some time in your vise. - - Enjoy
