I was always an avid Vincent Price movie watcher when I was a kid.
The Fly was one I never missed on Chiller Theater on Sat.
mornings. That`s the reason I called it that, also because it is
called Fly Fishing, and nobody I ever saw ties one. So I did.
Materials Vincent Price:
Tying Instructions Vincent Price:
- Attach green peacock to hook,wrap forward to 2/3`s of hook shank.
- Prepare wings with Sally Hansen`s hard as nails, set aside to dry.
- Dub thread with black dubbing, leave space at end of hook close to the eye.
-
Wrap thread back to attach wings.
-
Small amount of dubbing to cover the wings tie in point.
6. Small amount of seal natural brown or black for legs. This is
a little tricky, any that wraps over top of fly can be cut away.
Whip finish and cement.
- Treat fly with Gink’s floatant, it floats without but it
sure helps. Good luck and good fishin.
That is Jeffrey on the right with a nice striper. (DLB)
