    Default Small Western Green Drake

    Can't get to the Henry's Fork 'till August this year, but still tying the Flavs.

    This one is similar to the pattern Bob Jacklin ties.

    Educate me Byron, what is a flav.. I've been seeing that term used a lot and not really sure what it means. Am I having a idiot moment?

    Hi,
    It is just the Scientific short-hand name for the Drunella flavilinea which is a Small Western Green Drake.

    Paddy,
    Here's the Master tying the larger version...the Green Drake.
    I used slightly different coloration/materials, but it is basically the same pattern.
    Hope this helps.
