| Tying Instructions |
The fly is best described as a biot bodied Pale Evening Dun, due to
the color of the available biots, but I think it will play for
sulpuher as well.
- Start thread at 1/4-1/3 behind eye, wind to hook bend, leaving a long
string or create a "dubbing loop" at the bend
- Tie in 4-8 microfibbits (depending on how bushy you like your tails)
- Pull the string or "dubbing loop" through the tails to split them and
tie it down
- Tie in one or two biots by the tip - one creates a smoother body, two
looks more segmented - and wrap thread forward to wing tie in point
- Wrap to the wing tie in point & tie off
- Clip out a body thick - 2 X body thick section of hi-vis
- Tie the hi-vis onto the hook with figure 8 wraps, creating a level
wing set
- Optional: Tie in an additional biot and wind over the wings and to the
eye or
spin on dubbing of choice and dub over the wings and to the eye
- Whip finish as you like.

| Fishing Tips |
Floats very flush; hi-vis takes one - two false casts to dry. I
grease up the wings and tails only, your milage may vary.
Tight Lines and Wild Fish!
