I liked the looks of the Brown Owl streamer shown in the Fly Fisherman article on the Rapid River in Maine. The tying recipe was listed but no instructions. I am curious to know how the gray Mallard flank is supposed to look on the back? Is it supposed to be slim or flare out a bit?
Also, are there some good references or recipes for streamers from this region?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
