Peter's Hydro

Fly: Tomaz Modic, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann

Hook: Tiemco 2457 #6-10
Thread: Dark brown
Tail: Partridge filoplumes
Abdomen: O. Edwards wool Hydropsyiche-dark covered with scud back and ribbed with 6/0 brown thread
Gills: Ostrich on both side s - (and on the front of the fly "glued" with black marking pen to get the leg-effect /;-) (that's my contribution to the fly))
Head: hook's eye colored with pen
Thorax: colored first 3 segments with pen again...

Simple as it can be and tyed a lot faster than the Oliver's original...One of my favorite patterns lately and taff-loves them too. My FF buddy Peter is originator and he's tying very nice flies, he is still in commercial tying while other (including me) ran out of time.
