Here's an experiment I just tied up. I love soft hackles and was thinking about different ways to do one with a bead head. Here's what happened...
Hook: #14 TMC 2487
Bead: 7/64 Bronze
Thread: Tan 8/0
Tail: Hare guard hairs
Rib: Krystal flash, color to suit
Body: Hare's mask dubbing (include a little in front of the bead
Hackle: Partridge
Very classy! Love the bead addition....soft hackles are one of my favorite flies to fish!
ReplyDeleteThanks Erin! I used to fish them all the time. Don't know what happened but plan on fishing them a lot more again...
