Wonderwing Parachute

Fly: Al & Gretchen Beatty, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann

Hook: Dry fly, #12 - #22
Thread: To match the body
Tail: Coq de Leon fibers, Pardo or color of choice
Body: olive dubbing or color of choice
Wings: Looped wonder wings, color of choice
Hackle: Grizzly or color of choice, tied parachute style

Note:

Very effective fly over spooky, difficult fish.Add a small drop of Aqua Flex to the tip of each wing to improve durability.Don’t coat the whole wing because they will be too stiff and cause a twisted leader.
