Montana Featherduster Nymph

 

 

 

 

 

Variation on the original Featherduster; the bright thorax is supposed to represent an egg, maybe? Not sure, but it's effective for spawners running into Yellowstone out of Hebgen Lake.

 

 

hook - Dai Riki 280 #8

underbody - .030 non-tox

thread - Danville 6/0 brown

rib - medium wire copper

tail - pheasant rump fibers

abdomen - ostrich herl black

wingcase/legs - pheasant tail fibers

thorax - ostrich herl hot pink

Scott

Size 18 quill gordon. I use them for fall baetis.

Very nice prairiedrifter . I'm assuming the tail hackle is different from the dun that you used around the wings ?

Hot tipping zonker strips has sort of become my "signature." Thought these came out well. Pattern is heavily based on this streamer from Brandon Mena.
