WWKimba 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2022 A couple 2X2's from the Stone Condiment series. Annatto - My attempt to create a series inspired by Josephine Sedlecky-Borsum and her Hot Mustard - which will be featured next month. This represents a small orange stone dry and can be tied on a larger hook for the October stone. Hook - Mustad 94840, 10-14 Thread - black or orange Body/Tail - orange poly yarn, extended beyond the hook bend, tied down to eye and folded back over tail and both cut ~ 1 hook gap beyond curve of hook Hackle - grizzly or orange-dyed grizzly Hoisin - Another of my attempts and imitates the small brown stone. Hook - Mustad 94840, 10-14 Thread - black or brown Body/Tail - brown, tied as Annatto (above) Hackle - brown-dyed grizzly or grizzly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Philly 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2022 A change of pace for me. My SW club's tying session this week was caddis patterns. One of the patterns was the CDC and Elk(deer hair). It's been a while since I tied one and this one was tied in a hurry. I know I can do better, but here it is. My standard hook for it is a TMC 2488. The one in the picture, I believe is a Partridge hook. Hook: TMC 2488, size 12( I tie them on size 10 to 18) Body: Wrapped CDC feather, your choice of color Wing: Hair from a deer's mask. Thread: Black 8/0 Now back to my normal stuff. A panfish/bass fly. I'm sure there's a fly out there that looks like this. Or I borrowed bits and pieces from various patterns. Hook: TMC 5262, size 6 Thread: 3/0 tying thread/clear polyester Tail: Zonker Strip, Body: 3/0 tying thread built over Zonker strip, color to match or contrast with tail. Thorax/collar over eyes: Ice or sparkle chenille Wing: Marabou color to match or contrast with tail Head: 3/0 thread built up, finished with clear polyester.
