I like tying them in a purple with a brown UV dub as a collar. I use white biots for the wing and an amber for the tale and use the rest of the recipe. Some times I also use a 3761 with a longer shank but the 69 is good too just a bit compact usually in a 16. They have worked really well here in the NW and the one fish my girlfriend keep and eat on our week long trip to Montana was caught on this fly. Use it as a dropper fly weighted or not, but the bead is almost a must.

Cheers
Jake
