He noted that Stubenvoll tied the calf tail wing IN FRONT of the hackle. While Earl Paape favored the calf tail wing BEHIND the hackle (trude style)."

Baron 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2021 I should really circle back to that fly. I like the wing forward version. The longer I tie the more I remember to save space at the eye. I had tried to copy the version in Panfish on the Fly. Thanks for the link! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
niveker 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2021 Partridge and Gold A member was kind enough to send me some strands of white horsetail fibers. Very easy to work with, and gives a nice translucence to the body. I'm afraid my tying does not do the material justice. I need stronger cheaters when working with fine materials like this.
