This one has a little brass bead, perhaps not so good if you fish for Trout but sometimes very good for Rudd.

Hook: Sprite Perfect International #14
Thread: Yellow 8/0 Uni thread
Rib and loop: Crystal Flashabou ( this material is phosphoresend, so in dark water it will gives some light)
Body: Possum in a loop of the Crystal Flashabou
Hackle: Metz Hen Ginger Brown


Glow and Ginger Wet:

Beautiful fly, Ruard. I like the idea of the glowing rib. Neat idea.

I love the second photo. The bead of water in the eye of the hook looks cool.

Hi Mike,

It is a Metz hen ginger brown saddle. I bought it several years ago from my local Fly fishing store.

Here is a picture:

Great looking fly. Thanks for the "wet" look.
Always nice to see how the materials look in the water.
