Here is a pattern I found in the November 2010 issue of
Trout & Salmon (Bauer Media) in an article by Paul Procter "The Wild Side of Town."
The Grubber
Size – 14 - 16 Grub Hook
Thread – 8/0 Black (Here I used 8/0 Brown)
Head – Tungsten Bead 2.3 mm, Orange
Body – Hare's Ear Dubbing
|
Mash down the barb, place bead and apply thread. |
|
Dub abdomen whip finish and push bead over abdomen. |
|
Re-attach thread and dub thorax and whip finish. |
As far as fly's that follow the K.I.S.S. rule, well it's obvious this fly is there. It will make a good addition to the Czech nymph box. I'm going to give it a try as soon as possible.
This little bug has potential! Actually the first fish I ever caught dead drift nymphing came on virtually the same pattern without the bead.
