Freestyle Friday; octopus-ish.  Looks like I didn’t shake the bottle of Rit Wine very well; much redder than normal. The tail yarn was labeled “Bright Orange”, but when I combed it out, it was much more of a golden yellowish/orange, which is nice.

hook - WFC Model 6 #8
thread - Danville 6/0 orange
tag - tinsel gold
tail - yarn sunburst
rib - small wire gold
body - dubbing claret
body hackles - dyed copper olive (4 Tsp Rit Golden Yellow, 1/2 Tsp Rit Camel/1 cup water)/claret (1Tbs Rit Wine/1 cup water)
1st shoulder - golden pheasant body feather yellow
2nd shoulder - chukar dyed claret

Regards,
Scott

Put together a dubbing blend for leech flies and figured I'd post the result.

Nice, what does your blend consist of?  I usually just use the fluff off the base of a turkey breast feather with a little flashy synthetic dubbing for a collar, brushed out.  Does okay.

This blend is mostly peacock black ice dub with some red and gold mixed in.
