    Default Looking for pattern for DOA Dun

    Can anyone help me out with a pattern for a fly called the "DOA Dun"? A friend of mine would like me to tie some up, but I can't seem to find a pattern anywhere. I tried googling it and also tried to search for it here but I really haven't come up with anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,


    -Darryl

    Darryl,

    Sorry, no recipe.

    I did find it is one of the flies tied on this dvd:

    FLY TYING YELLOWSTONE HATCHES DVD
    Craig Mathews
    Yellowstone Media Group, July 2002
    ISBN: 0-YMG-00020-0

    Hope this helps (some)

    Cheers,
    Hans W

    You can contact Blue Ribbon Flies (www.blueribbonflies.com) the originator of this pattern. They may be willing to give it to you. If not, they'll sell you their pattern sheets from the year that contains this pattern (they used to call it Mayfly Cripple, then changed it to DOA Dun). The pattern sheets are cheap, and this shop consistently comes up with great new patterns. They publish each years new patterns in a littel flier, which, like I said, they'll sell you pretty cheap. They also have great materials and a wonderful shop in West Yellowstone. No, I don't own a piece of BRF, and I'm not related to the owners. But I have to say I look forward to getting their catalog every winter more than any other fly shop I know.
