SBPatt 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2017 Another gift from our friends across the pond. Wing size is a compromise between those I've seen on Caithness and Frankie McPhillips sites. This one's supposed to flop on it's side; most of my dries do the same thing, inadvertently, without the fancy spinnaker. 2x tippet recommended if you're worried about leader twist (lol). hook - Dai Riki 300 #10y thread - Danville 6/0 brown tail - pheasant tail rib - Uni-Stretch camel body - dubbing cream wing - mallard flank dyed olive hackle - grizzly dyed olive (oversize by 1) mash barb, start thread, wrap to point above barb measure (hook length x 2) some pt barbs; tie in/trim (easier to manage them if you keep them on the stem) tie in rib dub thread/dub body to 2/3 mark take first turn of Uni-Stretch flat (keeps the tail from torquing), then twist and rib body; tie off/trim measure (hook length x 2) mallard flank, tie in/trim; take a few wraps in front to set the wing angle tie in hackle wrap hackle, tie off/trim, half hitch x 2, SHHAN Regards, Scott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
