Hook: Dry fly (#20-22)

Thread: Black 6/0

Shuck: Antron fibers

Body: Olive goose biot

Wing: Natural CDC

Head: Tying thread

 

Tying Instructions: Wrap thread to hook bend and tie in shuck.  Tie in biot by the tip and wrap 2/3 up the shank.  Wrap the biot in an overlapping manner so that it creates a segmented body.  Tie in CDC puff with tip facing hook eyelet.  Finish off with the thread for the head and whip finish.  The shuck can be left or cut streamside as the hatch dictates.  Change biot colors as necessary.
