:thumbup: You're killin' me Fred! Have you ever attached a beadhead? Or, is this pattern meant to be fished "just" under the surface...The wiring probably is enough weight...

 

Thanks...Thom

Here's Version III. Reddish brown, for March Browns, Male Hendricksons, etc. Copper wire rib.

Thom, I like to fish it just under. But his year I'm going to experiment with dropping it down as a nymph. I have not tried to add a bead to this, but no reason you couldn't. I've seen other patterns where the bead is used instead of herl, behind the hackle as a thorax.

Cheers....Fred

:P

Fred...I like the "just" under. I'd suggest a your 3 for my 3 but I won't this time 'round :rolleyes:

 

Went down to the "Creek" yesterday with a Siestafred Murky tyed on. :bugeyes: The water was running HIGH AND FAST! Very dangerous! The banks were so muddy I would sink down nearly a foot. So I collected beer cans and bottles. Probably won't be down until the weekend! Maybe!

 

Later...Thom
