Flytier 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2008 Albino Olive Hook: Kamasan B175 #14 Thread: Benecchi 12/0, olive Tail: Dyed olive barred pintail barbs Body: Gudebrod Holoshimmer silk, single strand Underbody abdomen: Tying thread Underbody thorax: Butts of tail barbs are wrapped around the shank to shape a slender thorax Wing: Mallard quill slips Hackle: Hen hackle, dyed medium olive Note: The body wraps are spaced to show the thread underbody ever so lightly, then start to open slightly more along the thorax area to allow the olive pintail barbs thorax to bleed through some.

utyer 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2008 Hans, Very nice, and a very subtle way to get the ribbing. I really like the way your thorax treatment works out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
