For several years in the mid 1950's, I thought that I had invented a soft hackle fly for brim. I tied my fly on a cheap Mustad hook in size 8, 10, or 12. It had a short, dyed-yellow grizzly tail, a yellow chenille body, and a generous collar of webby, yellow grizzly hackle canted back toward the tail. It was and still is one of my favorite flies for brim. I was horrified to find that George Herter credited his son Jacques with the invention of the same fly in a red and white color scheme . How could I fight the owner of my favorite store? 8T
