Starling and Purple +

Post by Roadkill » Wed Jul 13, 2022 6:01 pm

Years ago, I made my original Starling and Purple variation after fishing the Snipe and Purple I found in Nemes Two Centuries of Soft Hackled Flies. For this version I added the Peacock thorax and a silver rib.

Hook- Wholesale Fly Company Model 3 #16
Thread- Purple Kimono Silk
Rib- SM Silver Ultra Wire
Hackle-Starling
