I like making a wetfly from a bird skin, and this one comes all from a golden pheasant skin. The fly is very buggy and the trout sure like it. A golden pheasant skin is a wealth of materials for tying flies. Every bench should have one at least. Twist of these guys up and give them a go in up coming months, the fly has served me well and I hope it will do you well also.
Materials
Hook- Daiichi 1560 #12-14

Rib- Small silver oval tinsel
