Found a series of 50 variations here. Pre-made dubbing brushes would speed up the process.

 

hook Dai Riki 280 #10

underbody - non-tox .025

thread - Danville 6/0 brown

tail - partridge brown

abdomen - small wire gold/hare's ear dubbing brush

wing case - pheasant tail

thorax - same as abdomen (but a bit thicker)

 

 

wrap front 1/3 of shank with non-tox; tie in thread, wrap to bend

That'll work gooood!

I have to try this style sparse brush with silver or gold wire. It adds a hint of bling in the tail without over doing it.

Thanks Scott & Lost Coast.
