Shakey Bealy Isonychia

[tie2fish]

Came across the basic pattern for this in a video on Matt Grobert's blog and then, after watching another version being tied by someone else, came up with the below for use as an eastern Isonychia (slate drake). The original Shakey Bealy was a pattern tied by Nick Nicklas, late of Blue Ribbon Flies.

Hook: Daiichi 1270 or similar, Size #12
Thread: Uni 6/0 brown
Tag/undercollar: Rainbow pearl Krystal Flash
Tail: Wood duck flank
Rib: Brown D-rib
Abdomen: Any Iso color dubbing
Thorax: Grey ostrich herl
Hackle: Grizzly hen cape

Did it come through?

[letumgo]

Yes! Thanks Wayne.

What a great looking pattern, and one that should be weary useful over the next two months. Great job Bill.
