Goldie -originated by Dick Empie to compete with successful spinners and spoons. Dick opened (bent) the hook gap slightly for better hookups and gold was his favorite color. Also listed as Dicks Shinner by Rainy's

A simple and effective pattern using thread, Bill's Body Braid and a little Krystal flash. Color variations are optional. Similar in nature to Chuck Kraft's Kreelex not sure who tied what first.

Hook Mustad -3366 with bead head (some use longer shank nymph hooks), thread- hot orange, tail- red Krystal flash(sparse) with bills body braid tied flat cut to length and brushed out (toothbrush) Body- body braid wound to bead head. Wing- body braid tied flat cut and brushed out. Hot orange hot spot collar.
