Playing around with the sharpie feathers on another fly gave me an idea for a Jingler Elk Hair variant. Change color/size to suit your needs; partridge or a host of other feathers could be used, as well.
hook - Dai Riki 300 #10
thread - UTC 140 tan
rib - x-small wire copper
body - Ice Dub hare’s ear
body hackle - grizzly (undersize by 1)
wing - deer hair
shoulder hackle - sharptail grouse
front hackle - grizzly
head - 1mm foam tan
Part 1
mash barb, start thread at head
tie in a strip of foam (about 1/2 gap width) at eye; fold back, tie down/trim
tie in rib, wrap to bend
dub thread/dub body
tie in hackle; wrap to bend
