    Default Anyone Help with the Yarn Wing Dun Pattern?

    I am reading Gary Borger's relatively new book "Fishing the Film". In it, he discusses the Yarn Wing Dun fly. I thought I would try one. Only had zelon handy which is a bit crinkly for this, I think.
    Also don't like trimming hackle, so left "as is" - having been tied in the X pattern.

    I do like the idea of a backward sloping wing silouhette as I think it more closely represents the dun on the water.

    How about posting your "real" Yarn Wing Dun???

    Thanks,
    Byron
