This is a fly I tied using 99% of the stuff sent to me by Mark Knapp. It is based on the Hare's Ear Nymph with a few substitutions.

Hook: size 14 nymph hook

Bead: small copper

Tail: moose mane

Body: Bison hair twisted and wrapped onto hook shank.

Ribbing: Xtra fine copper wire

Thorax: Hare's mask dubbing with otter hair added and dubbed.

Wing casing: black bear hair

Thread: brown

 

Com'on guys, post some photos of flies tied with the Mark Knapp materials he so graciously sent us. Thanks again Mark.

All I can say is at 60 years old Ill never have to buy any more deer hair to tie dry flies like Humpys,Caddis, Hoppers,Thunder Creeks..Ect. About the same with the fur and the bluegill nymphs I tie.

 

Ill be dead before I use all of this.

 

Very generous of you.

Thank you once again.

 

Anybody want to be in my will?
