This one tied on hook to spec, per Ephemera (Philips scale) - "Hook as long in the shank as a No 3, but to be of finer wire, and as small in the bend as a No 6 hook"

Blowing of the rust here- and i decided to forego the ambiguous 'joints of green peacock harl from tag to wing" which is sometimes interpreted as a herl rib along with the hackle and tinsel. I wasnt prepared to have the herl break after flossing that body!

Enjoy

Beautiful, as always, Eunan. I like that you put the silhouette of Ireland behind it for the photo.
