SBPatt 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2021 Sawada’s Rio Grande King (variation) Original called for matching duck quill segments (ugh!). Rummaging thru my stuff I found bags of turkey flats that I used to use for parachute wings before I found Congo Hair. Stripped off a section, folded it like bronze mallard and tied it it; not a bad effect and a lot easier for me than messing with quills. hook - Dai Riki 075 #10 thread - Danville 6/0 black tag - tinsel gold tail - golden pheasant tippet body - dubbing black hackle - furnace wing - turkey flat white Regards, Scott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
