Little Black Stone
Fly: Jerry Caruso, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann
Hook: Tiemco 101 Size 14-18
Thread: Black
Body: Black CDC
Wing: Black Fluoro Fibre
Hackle: Dark Gray Grizzly or Black trimmed flat on the bottom


Note: I tie this pattern to imitate the Little Black Stone Fly we have here in the East. The CDC feather is tied in by the tip and wrapped like a CDC&Elk. I trim the flaring barbules. The fly hatches as early as February, and is closer to a size 20. This size hatches later in the spring.
