This has been a rather busy week and as a result, I did not have time to tie anything new. So, it was a trip to the computer to find a previously photographed fly to post here. This one was used on the North Fork of the Stanislaus last week and did well. It produced a few bites and one trout that stayed on for only a minute while trying to bring him to hand. At least we know that they were interested in it.
Golden Stone Soft Hackle - Size 12(click for larger picture)
This guy was tied on a size 12 hook with creme colored unwaxed thread. Very light golden stone dubbing and Hungarian partridge hackle. Since I had no tinsel laying around, I used some copper wire for ribbing. Two wires were braided together before tied around the body for something a little different.
I've got about a half dozen flies lying around that haven't been photographed yet. I hope to get on the ball and do that shortly. The plan is to spend more time figuring out how to get those crystal clear photographs that some people are capable of. Hopefully I'll be successful and we no longer have to look at blurry images.
