POS (Partridge-Orange-Swords)
Hook - Mustad Model R50-94840/Size 10
Abdomen/Thread - UNI-Stretch (Orange)
Tag/Rib - Sulky Sliver Metallic Tinsel (Silver / No. 8001)
Tying Thread - 8/0 UNI-Thread (Black)
Thorax - Four or Five Peacock Sword Fibers (Natural Metallic Blue/Green) - Tyed in by the tips and reinforced in a thread dubbing loop before wrapping.
Hackle - Eastern Oregon Hungarian Partridge (Natural)

Abdomen has been coated with two layers of Loctite Super Glue to protect the body and make it more durable for fishing.

Thanks Carl (Old hat). I am LOVING the coloration on this hackle. The brown tips add another dimension...

These last few patterns are were tyed for Ariel's Casting for Recovery collection. Hopefully these will catch a few fish for one of the ladies participating in the program.

The name (POS) makes me laugh. "P.O.S." is often used in English as a derogatory term to describe something "piece of sh#t". I look forward to fishing with this POS. (twisted humor)

Stunning flies Ray. POS in Dutch is a little fish that eats evrything that comes for his mouth. If you fish with bait the hook will be in his tail. Ugly.

The really funny part is your flies are so perfectly tied that nobody would ever describe them that way. ;)
