Sandan 0 Report post Posted June 1 From the "Nemesis" thread. SalarMan mentioned Vince Marinaro's X wrap hackle collar. Well the drawings in "In The Ring of The Rise" aren't very helpful I decided to take on that "project". This is the latest attempt. Size 18, Bennichi 14/0, CDL tails, thread body, hackle tip wings, ginger whiting hackle, super fine pale yellow thorax. It's much easier when you use McFlylon or Z-lon for the wings.
