I've been working through some dark Hendrickson flymphs patterns lately. Different combinations of dubbing and such. I've settled on this one I believe.
Claret silk
Dark brassy dun hackle
Reddish copper wire rib
Bronze mallard tail
Abdomen of 50/50 muskrat and hare's poll
Thorax of 50/50 muskrat and hare's ear with a pinch of claret mohair

I love that bronze mallard tail color. Every time I try to get something similar my attempts wind up more toward the orange side. Beautiful fly, thanks for showing it to us.
