  • Hook: 14 Knapek D
  • Thread: Olive Pearsall’s silk
  • Tail: CDL Fibers
  • Hackle: “Ginger” Cookshill Hen
  • Thorax: Olive Diamond Ice Dub
Notes: Hackle is tied open à la Stewart’s Spider through the thorax with two touching turns behind the head. Meant to be fished dressed, upstream on a team of three (ideally). Colours can be altered to suit—Orange and true ginger, Tan and Black, Grey and Dun, etc—varying the thorax appropriately.
