Hook: Straight eye, 3X long curved shank, #6 - #8 (Tiemco TMC 200R, Daiichi 1270)
Thread: Olive #8/0

Underbody: Float Foam, black, small

Notes: This is a slight variation to a pattern that my good friend Phillip Rowley uses. It’s a wonderful choice for working a suspended nymph. Use a sink tip line, short leader, and crawl the fly around weedbeds.
