Thanks, Jerome Indeed it is, but when these Mayfly get going you need something to stand out, this is untried but I'd imagine that it may work. The tying is a follows: Hook: Partridge Yorkshire fly hook (K10) size 12 Wing: Olive cdc Thorax:Olive cdc Legs: Cock Pleasant tail tips. Body: Medium olive darning cotton, crocheted Shuck: Beige Z-lon with brown ostrich as nymph thorax legs are olive feather fibre. Derek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
