The length of the hackle should be about the length of the shank of the hook so it flows back over the body. I mostly fish lakes, and I've caught trout, bass, and panfish on this fly. I like it with a black body and dyed olive or natural hackle, Chartreuse with grey hackle, or tied black with a green butt (ala the green butt skunk. I think Bill's site is down right now. I just tried it. It's - http://www.datacomputer.com/flyfish/. When it's back up, I'll find it on there and post the exact site, but you should look around anyway. Bill has a great deal of useful stuff on it, and his realistic flies are phenomenal.
