Chad Trout 0 Report post Posted December 24, 2007 It is partially stripped Ostrich Quill. The back part is the stripped quill and the front half is the feathery part. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

letumgo 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2007 Another outstanding pattern, just as expected... That pattern has fishy-goodness written all over it. I love the effect of the partially stripped herl (ribbing and gills all in the same step). Brilliant!! Thank you for sharing this method. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fiahermansfly 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2007 I've been doing a little research on a fly I'm wanting to tie...You just hooked me up brother...That's the exact color combo I've been looking for...What kind of nymph skin are you using and color if you don't mind me asking?

Chad Trout 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2007 Hey Brett, Thanks man, I used natural nymph skin and used a edding marker in both yellow and brown to get the color I wanted. Its a pretty easy tie, enjoy, let me know if you have any other questons. Thanks Kevin and Mark too. Cheers everyone, Happy New Year!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
