Tying notes: To describe the stages in making this fly will be difficult and will not help you that much. The important thing is, that you begin with the antenna and the tail before anything else. Try keeping it in proportion all the way or you will suddenly not have enough hook at the end……! – Have a great fun with this.

Note: I also enjoy making some realistic flies and other things. I don't often fish with them, but sometimes they turn out to be real killers. But in Norway this fly has taken more than one salmon. Anyway, this fly is fun to tie and to show off. It is not an easy fly to tie, but with a little experience – it will work …!
