Black and purple bunny leech pattern - tied on a size 4 Gamakatsu B10S hook. Mainly tied as a pattern for prespawn Smallies here in PA, but might also find its way into the box for Pacific Salmon this summer in Alaska.

The body is actually a piece of chartruese micro chenille.

What hook are you tying that on?

B10S sz 1.
I need to bulk up the head because it turned into a leech once it got wet .

Working on the sparkle dun from the Pheasant Tail Simplicity book. Great book by the way. Some sulphurs and olives:

A very interesting pattern. Anything else other than the CDC wing and head. Looks like maybe a bit of dubbing under there?

I find the chartreuse back end can make a real difference during the grannoms and this is kind of an amped up version of that - with a bit of cdc and elk vibe as well. Bet it catches fish when sinking a bit too.

No other materials - besides the chenille and cdc on that tie. The legs and thorax are tied in with a dubbing loop - I thought about including just a wisp of dark brown dubbing in the loop with the cdc for the thorax/legs. That might intensify the contrast just a bit more.

Couple smallmouth flies. Not to sure about the green one, but I like the white/green.
