This one has caught me many a trout and many a trout for others also
Hook: - kasmasan B160 Size 16-12
Thread: - Black UTC 70
Body: - Black/Claret/Black Seals Fur I use my own brand
Hackle: - Black Cock Hackle 2 or 3 turns max.
Step 1: -
Insert hook to vice and run your thread down to the bend of the hook.
Step 2: -
Dub on equal amounts of seals fur, black then split it and then dub claret in the middle.
Step 3: - Wind the dubbed body onto the hookshank tightly as shown
Step 4: -
Tie in your black cock hackle I have use a Hoffman Pro Neck for mine and wind on 2 turns only.
Whip finish twice and trim, I do not varnish this pattern at all.
I usually fish 2 of these a smaller size 14 on the bob and a 12 on the point, i use a midge tip and cast them out and leave them for 5 secs if nothign comes up fig o 8 them back.
