easy. lay down the thread, dub the olive body, tie in some CDC on top. I like to take big CDC feathers, cut the fibers into a bowl and then apply CDC clumps as the wings. Give a little more bugginess to it. Little bit of dubbing for the head and whip finish. Can be tied in all colors. Good for post drift swing too... |
So simple and effective. Same as the F Fly. I like to use a pupa hook for the CDC dry fly so the body hands under the water.
