Comments and Tips:
Great Dry for the infamous Salmon Fly Hatch. Actually, it can be a good
searching pattern during the proper time of year. Make sure all the thread
binding is firm and tight. Hair moves on the hook so the use of some head
cement at the hair tie in points is warranted. Vary the color combinations
for the stone nearest you. Brown, Green, Gold yes, even albino white.
