I no longer curse Craig Mathews and his damn Sparkledun.  Even though I’ll never be able to tie a proper one, these work well enough and I don’t have to worry about about the wing torquing around the shank, no matter how firmly I think I’ve wrapped it; plus, these have built-in PFDs.

thread - Danville 6/0 light olive
shuck - Congo Hair brown
rib - Flatwax nylon chartreuse
body/head - dubbing olive
thorax/wing - deer hair dyed olive
