La Neptune

A French Canadian Seaducer variation; pretty basic pattern, although multiple flies would quickly deplete my badger hackle supply. Original had the hackles (4 used here) tied in by the butts and gang-tied (bushy); I tip-tied and wrapped in sequence.

hook - Mustad 9671 #4
thread - Danville 6/0 black
body - tinsel silver
wing - hackle badger (1 pair)
hackle - badger

Regards,
Scott

Good looking bug. An elegant, simple tie that sure looks like it would fish well. One must wonder how durable this pattern is with just hackle over a tinsel body. Thanks, Scott.
