Tying Instructions:
1. Tie in calf tail wing and post wings upright at the 1/3 point
behind the eye of the hook.
2. Wind thread to the bend of the hook shank. Tie in calf hair tail.
This should be a bushy tail, the length of the hook shank.
3. Prepare and tie in brown feather for rib.
4. Dub yellow body letting the butt ends of the wing serve as a base
for a slightly tapered body.
5. Wind the brown feather 4 to 5 wraps and tie off.
6. Tie in brown hackle behind the wing. Wind it behind the wing 3 to
4 wraps then directly in front of the wing for 3 to 4 wraps.
7. Form a head. Tie off.
Fishing Suggestions:
As with any dry fly, drag is the problem. Fish this and mend your
line for a long float. It works! ~ Susan Cox (aka Host Lady Jane)
