Parcel Stonefly |
|
![]() |
|
| Hook: | 2XL |
| Thread: | 8/0 Black |
| Weight: | Adhesive flat lead |
| Tail: | Goose biots (maroon) |
| Shellback: | Red parcel ribbon |
| Rib: | Copper wire |
| Abdomen: | Fine, grey / brown dubbing |
| Thorax: | Coarse, green seal |
| Markings: | Permanent marker |
Note: Here I have tied the parcel ribbon in and secured it using the copper wire. I rib the fly at the end and simply secure it with an half hitch, behind the thorax. The red ribbon is then given a few brushes with a black permanent marker to calm the colour and produce a mottled effect. |
