    Default A View of the Water Walker style of Fly

    Trying to post another photo of a Water Walker style fly. I failed to mention that this fly will land and upright no matter what happens to your cast. When I first tied these (10-15 years ago), I took it to my local fly shop. The owner did not know a great deal about fly fishing at the time. I challenged him to throw the fly anywhere he wanted and note that it lands upright. It did! It is the hackle coming out at 45 degree angles to the body which cause it to float correctly.....
