    Default A Gray Quill

    Have not fished this fly yet. It is tied with only 2 materials: Grizzly Hackle and Flank feather. I substituted some Wood Duck fibers for the wings.

    Anyone fish this fly and in what hatch?

    That's pretty similar to a mosquito pattern. I haven't fished one in years, but I seem to remember catching quite a few fish on them

    I like it. Did you treat the hackle stem to soften it?

    And a Red Quill.

    Match any of your local hatches?
    Perhaps as a dark Hendrickson?
