Hook Daiichi scud hook size 14
Brown superfine dubbing for underbody and tag (you can just see it in the pic if you look close)
turkey tail tips for tail ( you can't see in the pic but I also covered the back of the fly over the dubbing with the back portion, leading up to the thorax)
Natural squirrel fur for dubbing
Brown Partridge for hackle

Hey fishhead - looks tasty - go catch a fish with it....

Andrew,

I meant to use it today, but my daughter was home sick so I have to wait until next week to try that one out

Lovely fly, fishhead! I love the combination of materials, as well as your choice of hook. This pattern certainly deserves a name.

PS - Could you list the model number on the hook you used?

I am pretty sure the hook model is 1150 Heavy Wide Gape 1X Scud Hook. The reason I am not sure is because this hook came out of my misc. bin of hooks that I have from removing all material from fly's I made in my first year of tying with a razor while I am bored at work. Anyone else do that? I tie more fly's that I can buy hooks. One day I hope to be able to fish with most of my time, right now I tie most of the time.

Just the scruffy style (!) that I like.
