utyer 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2012 I am pretty sure that is a Tuttle Devil Bug. You should be able to search for information on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flyman416 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2012 Yep thats a Tutle Devil Bug. Tutle devil bugs are i think antique flies. Tutle devil bug has many more types of flies but are mainly a form of deer hair fly. Did you tie that fly? If so good job. T-Boll Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stippled Popper 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2012 A blast from the past but I believe that fly is still available. There was an article on it in one of the magazines I subscribe to in the last year or two. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Tony P Report post Posted March 12, 2012 I didn't tie them myself, I received a box of them that were part of my wife's late grandfathers fly fishing collection. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
