This morning I met up with Corey and Doug to hit the Green River to only be turned away due to snow on Interstate 80 past Evanston WY. So while we stopped and eat at the McD's and talking about summer fishing and Doug showing Corey and myself a few patterns that worked for him this past Summer I figured I'd tie this version up.

Recipe:

Hook-------------size 8 streamer hook

Thread-----------8/0 Black

Foam-------------2mm Tan Foam

Underwing------ White Poly yarn

Overwing-------- Cow Elk

Thorax----------- 3 strands of peacock herl

Post--------------White Poly yarn

Parachute------Grizzly Hackle wrapped downward on poly post.

Legs-------------Black Micro tubing and one strand of Tan Micro Centipede Legs

pulled through the Micro tubing using a piece of small ribbing wire

made into a loop. I than placed the micro legs into the wire loop

and pulled it together through the Black Micro Tubing. Once through,

I just trimmed the even the section.
