5shot 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2014 Pretty basic, but I was curious to know what it is called. On his web site he refers to is as "Old Mexico", but I find no reference to that name anywhere else. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve P 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2014 Any way to get a pic of the actual fly? Looks to be articulated and tired with buck tail and I don't know what. Maybe some saddles in there as well or marabou. Hard as heck to tell when it's all wadded up and soaking wet like that. Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing special. I couldn't find a pic of it other than in the mouth of that Brown. It is articulated and I think the fish is actually hooked by the one in it's mouth. There is a pic of a similar fly on the same website that shows 2 hooks being used. I hope to hear back from the web site, but if not, I am just going to take a crack at it and see what happens. As has been mentioned, it isn't anything really special. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2014 It looks like long hair or fiber. Tied on with the length of hair forward of the tie in. Then doubled back onto the hook and tied in. Might be some weight under it. Pretty much what Joel said. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
