Instructions: Note: This fly was another Fly Tyer cover
in Winter of 2000. These flies are tricky at first and mine first ended up being
a winter challenge. Surprisingly, the first one off the vice, is the one
pictured here. It has been fished and as you can see is remarkably durable. Big
fish love big stones. The best way to learn to tie this fly is by purchasing a
back issue of Fly Tyer or by buying Oliver Edwards "Fly Tyers Masterclass" a
book I highly recommend. My fly is actually a hybrid of the two resources
mentioned above and was tied to the size of a natural that came from a stream in
the Great Smokies National Park. Fish it on the bottom on the slowest drift
possible. Use some heavy tippet.
