Thread: "February Red" soft hackle.

  1. #1

    "February Red" soft hackle.

    A pattern I found in Dave Hughes book Wet Flies.

    A simple pattern with a history of taking trout.



    The pattern calls for silk thread for the body, hares dub for the thorax, and a grouse feather for the hackle.
    The top fly is tied with traditional silk thread and the bottom is tied with cotton thread.

    A Couple of mean Fish Fetchers there. I Think the top fly has more sheen to the body. Neat Tie.
