  6. Bumbled Sugermen Shrimp (variation) More fun downsizing some Atlantic salmon flies.

  10. Willie Gunn Octopus (variation) Not enough variation between the sunburst and orange for a true W/G, although the overall effect is nice enough; more work at the dye bath required. hook - WFC Model 6 #10 thread - Uni 8/0 black tail - yarn flame rib - small wire gold body - Starburst dubbing gold hackles - dyed sunburst (1 Tbs Rit Golden Yellow/1 cup water) 1st shoulder - golden pheasant body feather yellow dyed sunburst 2nd shoulder - pheasant rump dyed orange (1 Tbs Rit Sunshine Orange/1 cup water) collar - hen saddle dyed black Regards, Scott

  14. Tent Wing R/A Green Peter Borrowed the winging idea from Chris Williams’ October Caddis; easier, for me, than matching hen pheasant wing segments. hook - WFC Model 3 #10 thread - Uni 8/0 camel tag - Depth Ray fluoro red/resin rib - small wire gold body - Starburst dubbing olive body hackle - furnace wings - sharptail grouse front hackle - furnace Regards, Scott
  15. Rabbit/hare’s ear - great in it’s natural state; easy to bleach, dye, bleach & dye Acrylic yarn - cut into 3/4” pieces and run through a coffee grinder; almost any color you can think of, works as well on dries, wets, nymphs, streamers, etc Ice Dub/FTD Starburst - lots of sparkle Regards, Scott
  16.

  20. Moulin’s Hare’s Ear Muddler Playing around with Fabian Moulin’s style head; not quite there, yet, but this will float and should push some water. hook - WFC Model 6 #10 thread - SemperFli 8/0 black tag - Depth Ray fluoro red/resin rib - small wire silver body - Ice Dub hare’s ear hackle - grizzly shoulder - pheasant rump collar/head - deer hair Regards, Scott
  21.

  23. Coneheads work, too, and allow for a slim body profile, if that’s what you’re looking for. Regards, Scott
  24. Claret Octopus (variation) Viable fly or an exercise in seeing how much stuff I could fit on a hook?
