Snowshoe & Pheasant.

Post by Smuggler » Sat Apr 28, 2012 8:14 pm

Image
Hook: Dia-ichi 1550, 14
Thread: Drk brown 8/0
Tail: Pheasant
Body: Pheasant tail fibers
Throax: I have a small ball of Sulpher orange beaver dubbing but, a dark one would look nice I bet.
Hackle: Med Dun Snowshoe Hare feet fibers.

I bought a new camera recently, an Olympus tg-310. Still trying to fiddle around with it and my tying area to get some decent lighting and pictures. So far the camera produces some great shots.

Please let us know how this fishes ... it looks deadly.

I can think of several ways to use this one. Thanks for the enlargement. :)

My kinda fly! (That's the way I'd like mine to look!)
Looks like a very effective tie.
