thread - Uni 6/0 black
tail - yarn chartreuse
rib - small wire silver
body - floss (Oral B used here but any tape-like brand works)
body hackle - grizzly
shoulder - hen badger
collar/head - deer hair
Regards,
Scott
Sorry Scott, but I must ask. Do you try any of these wonderful creations you tie on the water. Seems to me there is not enough viability of the body of the fly. Just saying.
As far as the dries go, they will be fished at some point (some of the wets, too). Can?t say I?ve had any muddler that doesn?t work; the inherent design is pretty bulletproof and even some of the more garish ones have proven to be very productive. It helps that I fish unpressured water and the fish are a bit naive; wherever I fish, I?ll change flies often just to see what else works.Regards,ScottQuote:
