Enjoy!
Soft Hackle Pupa
Tiemco 2487 #16 with olive Spirit River UV2 Caddis/Nymph dubbing ribbed with chartreuse holographic Flashabou. Soft hackle from a brown hen saddle and a 5/64 black bead.
Emerger
Tiemco 2487 #16 with natural stripped peacock quill body covered in Clear Cure Hydro. Thorax is olive Awesome Possum Dubbing with yellow foam post and Whiting dry hackle parachuted around the foam.
Jiggy Copper John
Daiichi 4640 jig hook #16 with ginger speckled Coq de Leon tail and leg fibers, small amber wire abdomen and mix of flame and amber Fusion dub thorax. Wing case is Lateral Scale Flashabou coated in Loon Fluorescing UV Clear Fly Finish. Orange thread and 5/64 rainbow multi-hued bead.
Unless I’m missing something, I believe this fly is going to ride upside down due to the jig/bead configuration. The wing case will then be under it. It probably should have been tied hook point up.
