Barrett's Bane (variant)

[Hans Weilenmann 0]

The Barrett's Bane is a classic/traditional Welsh dry fly, originated by Roland Milton Cosmo Barret. The original has a dun hackle, but I prefer the variegated look of the grizzly dyed dark dun.

That's a good looking fly. You could do a variation with peacock and grizzly hackle.
