Lime Sally Flymph

Post by tie2fish » Tue Mar 08, 2011 12:29 pm

A few days ago, redietz wondered what a flymph pattern would look like in lime green; here's the best I could do with the materials at hand ...

Hook: Daiichi 1710, #14
Thread: Pearsall's Gossamer, light olive
Hackle: Fl. green saddle hackle
Tail: Fl. green saddle hackle fibers
Rib: Oval gold tinsel, small
Body: Seal dyed fl. green in dubbing loop
