I tied a half-dozen of these and used them yesterday on a local fishery, needless to say, the trout readily ate these during the hatch. It was a perfect match for the hatch, perfect size, and shape. I made a slight modification to the original tie which seemed to strengthen the wing. I brushed clear nail polish on the wing to help bond the fibers together. Plus, it gave it a bit of a shine, similar to an actual wing. The wing is a bit fragile but this proved to be a killer pattern. I consistently was catching fish when other anglers seemed to be spending time digging through their fly box. Thank you for posting this!!
What a cool pattern! I’ll definitely be tying up some of these soon
The way the wing is tied reminds me of the improved Jassid Marinaro describes in his book In the Ring of the Rise. I've been tying my Jassids with this wing type since junglecock has been so tough to find. As always, your instructional videos are an art of fly tying excellence on the web.
Best,

I love watching your work! You explain things so simply and clearly! And never rushed as so many others do. As a newbie to tying, I get inspired to be challenged. My flies are not as good looking but for most parts they work and there is nothing like hooking a fish on a fly you tied! Thanks.
Nice, will tie this tomorrow! :) But I think I will trim the hackle on the top also. Great inspiration👍
Tying that wing has just blown my mind. That’s awesome
Thank You! Really nice fly and I love all your videos and the way you narrate them and explain the process. Just retired and started tying a year or so ago and your videos have be a great help. I think it can even tie this one. lol thanks again.

That is a sweet little fly. Just in time also, I just found a few sunning themselves on a guardrail this afternoon.
I like that wing idea. 👍
As always a awesome guide! Thank you. You inspire me!
Very nice pattern...Thanks! We have yet to see the early black stone flies up here
in N.E Pa....Winter refuses to leave.....Thank You!
We do have quite a few of them here in NW NJ but most waters are now closed for stocking. 3 to 6 inches of snow tomorrow isn't going to make the season come any sooner either.
Hello there. Great fly pattern, tied 6 of them and went up on March 2nd and 3rd. I hammered the brown trout on these and they wouldn't take anything else. Can you give a decent recommendation to putting a parachute on this fly? I couldn't see the fly, but the Brownies certainly did. I am going to experiment as a novice tyer. Thanks so much, Chad
If you get the chance to try using some natural black squirrel Body hair it works great and is easyer to work with, but all around awesome tie and pattern thanks
May I ask why you tie the hackle back towards the hook point as opposed to towards the eye? It would seem that it would be easier to do your whip finish at the end.
I like the look of this fly and have tied up about a dozen. But as a relatively new fly tier I have a question. It's is probably too long after the video was published to expect a reply but I'll give it a try. I find that doubling the hackle stem over makes the area behind the eye a bit bulky and, for me, makes the final whip finish a little harder. In all your other dry fly videos that I've watched you tie in the stem once and wrap the hackle back-to-front. My question is, is there any particular reason that you wrap the hackle front-to-back for this particular fly? Does it increase durability? Is there any reason Not to tie back-to-front?
are you from Utah? Every fly I want to use in utah came up with on your site ...wow my english lol
Great looking fly! What color coq de Leon soft hackle are you using?
Hey I was trying to tie this last night and was having a hard time tying the CDC to the hook. Do you have any advice on how to do this easier?
Really like the CDC body!
I really wish the idea were mine Mike, but it was pirated directly from Hans Weilenmann's CDC and Elk, another fabulous pattern.
CDC is such a great material!
Love your videos. Very nice fly!! Thank you. Best regards.......Kevin
Very nice !
and can you replace gadwall feathers for a partridge and orange or do you have to use partridge?
You should make a video showing all the flies you've tied.
Hi Tim. I'd like to tie this a little larger (sz 12-14) to imitate Michigan's early black stonefly. Aside from the hackle size, is there anything else you would change as I size it up?
why do you use utc and danvile thread instead of uni or something like that i'm just curious
Hi, amazing video, very useful! Can you tell me where could i find the tool at 4:01 ?
It's a Whiting Hackle Gauge (none better in my opinion). Orvis and Feather Craft both carry them as do others.
tightlinevideo thank you! In Italy i've never seen something like that..
This look more like ...exactly like a caddis fly.
Thanks
Great!
