Run thread to the bend of
hook, tie in tag tail, and catch in silver rib and black silk.
Run silk and rib back to the eye, leaving room to tie hackle, and tie
off.
Tie in hackle, give three turns, tie in and whip finish and add a black
varnish head.
A great fly to try when trout are becoming shy of lures. It gave
excellent results at Draycote in 2002. It is a simple and
effective pattern for the inexperienced or infirm fly tyer.
