Ran onto this pattern at the SowBug. It is my kind
of fly.
Ingredients:
Hook: Size 16, this is a Mustad 94840.
Thread: Dark.
Body: From non-slip mat.
Legs: Hackle.
Method:
-
Attach thread to hook. Tie body material on.
-
Attach hackle and make one wrap with the feather.
- Tie off thread.
- tie them in these 3 colors.
Here is a picture of the material label
and then what the material looks like on the roll.
I found the black and tan at Lowes. The red
I found at WalMart, but it cost more than the
rolls at Lowes.
Cut this material on the diagonal to make the bodies.
