WWKimba 0 Report post Posted July 5, 2022 Texas Hopper - Art Winnie designed this hopper fly in 1949. Though he never said what type of animal hair was used on the underwing, he did say that the material helped to make a rugged tie. Also, calf tail and squirrel tail were commonly used materials at that time. The fly got its name because the first big order Art got for this fly was from the state of Texas. Hook - dry fly, 4-14 Thread - black Tail - red duck quill, tied in a "V" Body - white chenille, tapered Underwing - red calf tail or squirrel tail Wing - mottled turkey, tied down over body Hackle - brown Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
