Give yourself a hi-5.
Can`t tell how big that puppy is so I`ll guess.
Looks like it`s in the Muskie class. Lenght wise.

Reason being when wet the feathers flatten letting the Mylar give it some added pop.
Not trying to be negative in any way, just adding my thoughts.
Reguardless........ Give yourself a.........Hi-5.
I`ve used that set-up for years. Late 50`s. I cast side-arm. Also put the smallest split-shot I can find near the fly.
Also just tie the leader to the rear treble. Mono line size does help as well. Some is a little more....stiff.
