| 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. |
