    Default Project for a good tier

    I found my Bob Jacklin style Green Drake pretty effective in late June. His has an olive/green body with a yellow ribbing of silk.

    I caught the Green Drake, below, while fishing the hatch. I noticed the body is more like an olive/green/yellow body ribbed in a light brown......

    Anyway, I am trying different combinations to more nearly represent the body of the fly.

    I would LIKE for a really good tier to help me out on this. Not with suggestions, but with a photo of a completed fly and the dressing used. I want a fly tied in Compardun style.

    Below the photo of the actual Green Drake is my first attempt (shown wet) as it might appear to the trout.

    Anyone interested in helping??

    Thanks,
    Byron
