More goodness from the Badger State. Tied here as a streamer; I’ve seen it in wet and dry versions, as well as one with Golden Pheasant tippet tail/peacock body (sounds like a Coachman Hairwing).
hook - Mustad 9671 #6
thread - Danville 6/0 black
tail - brown hackle fibers
body - chenille black
hackle - brown
wing - calftail
Part 1
Mash down barb, start thread at 80% mark, wrap back to bend
even tips on a clump of hackle fibers, measure (= body); tie in
strip end off chenille, tie in
move thread back to 80% mark and tie in hackle
wrap chenille forward; tie off and trim
stroke hackle fibers back while winding; tie off and trim
Here’s one I tied up in the peacock/golden pheasant version.
The only real difference I see between it and a Western Coachman is the thread color. I found the fly on a Wisconsin site, which is where it originated, so you think they’d know; never assume anything, I guess.
