Sheepdog8404 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2015 Messing around with streamers tonight and came up with this little guy... Marabou tail Peacock Herl body Brown hen hackle collars I think it looks pretty good but will the trout think so too? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bellevue.chartreuse.trout 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2015 Interesting. Should work at the right time and place eh? Show us a big fish of any sort with that sticking to it's lip and then we'll all say, 'yup' unconditionally. Interesting with the soft hackle spun in two places of the overall fly though.

wschmitt3 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2015 Yea it'll catch a few im sure. Some pointers - Try to tighten up the head so there isn't so much space between the bead and hackle. If it were me I would loose the second hackle and add a counter wrapped wire rib to make it a more durable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
