Full Metal Jacket, black


Fly: Martin Westbeek, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann

Hook: wet fly, #14
Thread: Benecchi 10/0
Abdomen: Ultra Wire, small
Thorax: Small pinch of black seal
Hackle: Coot wing covert

Note: I use the wire as if it were thread, putting the wraps next to each other. The same wire is wrapped back over the previous wraps as a rib. The rest is standard operating procedure.
