| Hook: | Mustad 94840 or equivalent, sizes 8-20 |
| Thread: | UNI 8/0 or Gordon Griffith's 14/0 |
| Tail: | calf tail, color to match natural |
| Body: | calf tail, extended body style, angled downwards when in the vise; this will help it to ride upside down and give it a very realistic profile in the water. Can be dubbed for more durability |
| Hackle: | butts of calf tail used in making tail/body, spread underneath the shank comparadun-style |
Note: I have not fished this fly yet, but when tank tested, I could hardly believe how realistic it looked on the water. It should make an excellent imitation of a dun and spinner of all mayfly species, with a few simple adjustments of thread and hair colors. Enjoy! |
