Pale Watery Dun

Post by Old Hat » Thu Aug 19, 2021 8:15 pm

Working on a Pale Watery Dun pattern and playing with some Partridge L5A's that Lou gifted me. These are on #16's. Well waxed primrose dubbed with pale red fox in the rear and pink vixen coyote in the thorax. Pale watery hen hackle and tail. The two-toned dubbing goes well here I think.

I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

The perfect example of a fly many of us dream about finding
on our vise!

Two thumbs up from me. The two colors work well together.

Thanks Gentlemen! I appreciate the kudos.

I did enjoy tying on these hooks. They are a bit stouter that the more common up eye models out there.
