Thread: Cream
Tail: Cream hackle fibers
Rib: Pearlescent tinsel
Body: Cream rabbit dubbing
Wing: Lemon Wood Duck

Note: The fly was originated by me to represent the wide range of cream colored insects that hatch throughout the late spring and summer on the Genesee River. This fly also is a great attractor pattern that can be used to pound up fish in the spring and fall.
