Miracle or Hoax?

I’ve heard about Mother Teresa’s face being seen in a bagel, Elvis’s image popping up in someone’s toast, and the face of Jesus being revealed in a potted asparagus fern as well as numerous other images appearing unexpectedly in unexpected places , but this one beats all.

One of my readers claims that an image of yours truly appeared on the shell of a Gurgler that I had tied for him years ago, one that he recently retrieved from his fly box in preparation for a new season. He claimed further that the fly proved to have miraculous powers (he didn’t say WHAT powers, however) and that he was considering putting this up for sale on eBay. Asked me what I thought he should ask for it.

What do you think? Is this a hoax? Or could it really be true? As yet I’m undecided–but if any of my readers have found similar images, there will be a further investigation. Stay tuned.
