Jason Borger Watercolor

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I am putting together a shadow box of some of my flies. Jason Borger was willing to do a watercolor for me of my "Byron's Soft Hackle" fly. This fly has been my most productive fly for nearly 20 years now. This is a picture of his watercolor and the fly he is representing.

 

He is a true artist!!!

Looks like a pattern that would work in my area, is the recipe of materials posted anywhere?

 

 

Hi,

 

It is very simple. I make the dubbing. Which is Dazzleaire cut into 3/4 inch pieces and then blended in a coffee grinder. The "yarn" Dazzleaire can be found by doing a google search for it.

 

The ribbing is small gold mylar tinsel.

 

The collar is 1.5 turns of a natural partridge feather

 

The head is peacock hearl.
