Hendrickson.

 

Hook: 12-14

Tail: medium dun(I prefer barred medium dun)

Body: cream with a very slight pinkish hue(traditionally the urine stained belly fur from a vixen fox)

Wings: divided wood duck flank(dyed mallard works but not as good)

Hackle: medium dun(I prefer barred medium dun)

 

Not only my favorite dry to tie, this is my favorite hatch to fish. It means that spring is truly here when the Hendricksons are on the water.

I like humpys here's one I tyed up today called a colorado captain. I also like trudes and royal wulffs. I use alot of trudes for the Dry dropper when fishing.

Gosh. This is truly a tough one. I will make this interesting. For a non-specific "searching pattern" I will take a Parachute Adams anyday with the Royal Wulff taking a very close second. The tie being broken by the Adams originating in my home state not far from home.

 

However, when matching the hatch I prefer a loopwing dry dressed as such.
