    Default Modified Breadcrust Fly

    Hi,
    Re-reading Pat Dorsey's book on tailwater flies. His sort of signature fly is the Breadcrust - a fly he tied for many years in Colorado. He did not invent it, but took over tying them when the inventor retired from tying.

    I added a little peacock hearl between the swept back grizzly hackle and the bead head.

    I did not have ruffled grouse feathers, so used a wing feather from a Partridge.

    Let me know what you think.

    Thanks,
    Byron
