Notes: Gray Wolf's Yellow Ghost is true to the Carrie Stevens linage of Ghost patterns. The pattern is a reflection of Mrs. Stevens' Gray Ghost using a yellow wing and body. Another version of a Yellow Ghost appeared in Dick Stewart and Bob Leeman's 'Trolling Flies for trout and Salmon' which is quite distinct from other versions and features a barred wood duck shoulder and a black body.
