Hends BL550 size 14 hook. Uni-thread 8/0 camel. Body of Vicuña march brown dubbing from the JW River selection. Body is ribbed with dark fine copper wire (from an electric motor). Collar of Vicuña fluo orange dubbing. Hen pheasant hackle from the wing, tied in reverse. Comment – in recent years a hackle, tied in reverse, has been associated with the Sakasa Kebari style of fly used in Tenkara and fixed line fly fishing. However tying and fishing wet flies with a reversed hackle has been practised in the UK in upstream fly fishing since years gone by.
