Partridge & Pheasant Tail Spider |
|
|
|
Hook: | Orvis standard dryfly-#14 |
Thread: | Pearsalls Gossamer silk...Java Brown |
Body: | 3 or 4 pheasant tail fibers, twisted together with the tying thread and counter wrapped with fine copper wire for strength. The body should begin at a point above the hook point... or no longer than above the barb |
Hackle: | 1 turn of grey/brown partridge hackle long enough to reach just past the hook bend |
This has been my favorite wetfly for many years. As such, it's usually the point fly on my multiple fly rigs when fishing. Good in sizes #12-#16. |
