Adventures in dyeing; aiming for magenta but came up a bit short. The Rit Fuchsia was very intense; need to work on concentration and time in dye bath and maybe add a bit of violet (or scarlet?).


hook - Dai Riki 075 #8
thread - Danville 6/0 wine
tag - Danville Depth Ray fire orange
tail - bleached pheasant tail dyed scarlet
rib - oval tinsel silver
body - dubbing claret/magenta/Ice Dub purple
body hackle - hen grizzly dyed silver doctor blue (2 packs Koolaid Ice Blue Raspberry/1 cup water)
