flyfishing99 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2012 Hi, I was looking at all the followers of the "Purple Haze" type flies and how they raved about their effectiveness. I like Sparkleduns, so tied one using purple colors. I was told it wasn't a true Purple Haze. I will grant that, but I think if you believe the color purple works great, there is no reason this Purple Sparkledun should not work too. Let me know what you think.

Piker20 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2012 Very good looking fly. I find purple and claret colours my bankers for the local loch trout. Can you give a more detailed breakdown of materials you've used there? Is the wee bit of UV flash in the thorax a strand you wrap in or part of the chopped dubbing you've used?
