more on the scruffy side of things
Hook: Mustad R72
Thread: UNI 6/0
Tail: Hares Mask guard hair
Abdomen: Hares Mask underfur ribbed with thread
Hackle: Hares Mask guard hair
Notes: floats well and works as dry & wet, imitates emerger, spinner and dun depending on fishing technique and prepping

That looks dangerous
How do you do that hackle? is it split thread, or a loop or something?

I also used this type of hackle here

I like that fly a lot, will try that.
Great way of presenting the instructions too, that works well.

Hi,
played around with the method of tying the hackle pointing fowards, invented by French Aimé Devaux. Looks interesting too and sits well on the water. Can´t wait for spring now .....
tight lines,
