I bow to your knowledge Hans. Like I said I've come across this style but know little about them. Could we have the recipe for that one please. That dubbing looks very interesting. I think, for here, a touch of red mixed through it would work well, our waters are on the acidic side.

Notable though that the hackle on that is a head hackle. I'm not sure about the way it would look with more of a thorax hackle as is called for on a Stewart Spider.

Cheers,
A.
