Orange Foam Beetle
Tied by Richard Ross
  • Thread: 6/0 orange
  • Hook: Mustad 94840 #14
  • Body: Orange foam and angora goat
  • Tying Instructions
    Start thread behind eye. Cut foam strips to equal gape of hook. Tie in foam on top of hook and wrap back over foam to bend with 'tag' end of foam facing back over the bend. Form a dubbing loop and dub a sparse angora goat body over foam. Pull the foam forward over the eye. Secure foam with three wraps, then one wrap under the head behind the eye. Whip finish and cut head to shape. Great fly, good strike indicator!...;^)
