James Leisenring’s Hare’s Ear

Thread - primrose silk. I used Kimoto silk #301.
Hook - Wet fly 12 or 14
Tail - Wood duck fibers
Rib - flat gold tinsel very small
Body - spun body of primrose silk and hare’s lobe.
Hackle - none, pick out fur
Wing - Woodcock secondary slips with buff tips.

To spin the bodies see my video on using a Clark Spinning Block.

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.
