a no name creation

Post by fishhead » Tue Oct 19, 2010 9:50 am

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

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.
