Description
This fly has been doing well for me during March. Tie these small during early spring and make them larger as time goes along.
Materials
| Hook | Nymph Hook Size 14-20 |
| Thread | 6/0 – Olive or Green |
| Tail | Clear or Olive Micro-Fibers |
| Rib | Copper |
| Body | Olive or Green Thread |
| Wingcase | Flash |
| Thorax | Clear or Olive Micro-Fibers |
| Legs | Olive Dubbing |
| Head | Black Bead |
Instructions
| Step 1: Please bead on the hook and move to the eye of the hook. Tie in some olive or green thread. Tie in some micro-fibers for the tail. Leave the fibers in to be used later as legs. |
|
| Step 2: Tie in copper wire and wrap around about 3 or 4 times for the ribs |
|
| Step 3: Tie a piece of flash where the ribs end. Tie in some olive dubbing for the thorax. |
|
| Step 4: Tie off the flash right below the bead head. Split the micro-fibers and tie off to create legs. Whip finish and put some cement on. |
