Hello Rick,

Thanks for your nice words about the article, I will answer your "technical" questions in a personal mail.

Mook,

According to the tyer, the thread pushes the fibers back, and the thread will wind up right where you need it to tie down the hackle.

What are the advantages of bring the thread forward by wrapping the hackle forward, as opposed to wrapping the thread towards the eye, and then wrapping the hackle forward?

I Love the look for this pattern, I will definitely be trying it on UK Stillwater trout.
I tied one last night with an orange dubbed "egg spot". I look forward to seeing how it performs.

Thanks for a great pattern.

This looks like a great pattern for uk still water fishing and stalking. I tied one up last night with an orange dubbed "eggspot" I will see how it performs. Very excited to try it thanks for putting it on the site!

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
