Yellow Humphy

Conrad Shirk - RbnHood

Hook: no larger than 14 (Mustad 16 long shank)
Thread: Yellow (danville 3/0)
Tail: Bucktail
Underbody: Dubbed k-pac (lifevest stuffing)
Body: Yellow dubbing (Ligas; Sparkle Hopper Yellow) Bucktail tied over top
Hackle: 1 brown tied behind wings, 1 grizzly tied in front of the wings
Wings: Bucktail
Notes: The k-pac was added to increase float ability.  One piece of bucktail is used for wings, back, and tail to reduce thread weight and bulk.  I have over the years tried to use this pattern as a base to match the hatch so to speak.
