Along with the March Browns I worked up a few Dark Hendrickson's.
This one is my pattern.
Silk: claret
Hackle: dark dun hen
Tail: bronze mallard
Ribbing: very fine copper wire with a red tint
Body: Rear half (50/50 muskrat and hare's poll). Front half (50/50 muskrat and hare's ear with a pinch of red mohair). Dubbed on claret silk
