V-Dun |
|
|
|
Hook: | Daiichi 1110, #14-22 |
Thread: | Fly Master 6/0, Gudebrod 8/0 or 10/0, color to match abdomen |
Tails: | Natural very hard material (i.e., bull elk neck, Microfibbetts, Ron McLean's Supertail) |
Rib: | Optional, but when called for, contrasting color of thread twisted to enhance segmentation |
Abdomen: | Thread, color to match natural |
Thorax: | Dubbing, color to match natural |
Loopwing: | 4-5 winds of hackle, color to match natural, gathered with tying thread toward an ultimate shape of fanned wings that lay to either side at about a 120 degree angle to one another |
Notes: This fly was designed by Eric Otzinger. He fishes it as an emerging dun, a spinner, or a knock-down dun. With a trailing shuck of Z-lon I suspect it would be a good emerger pattern as well. |
