Re: Bibio. Recently had a virtual conversation with an Aussie that found
a fly brought down under by John Horsey (stillwater expert). It's the
Bibio Hopper and they have found it very effective. I've seen slightly
different versions of the body: red in middle or rear two-thirds black,
front third red. The Bibio Hopper has a throat of golden pheasant
tippets, a wide flat silver rib, and a soft black hackle at the front.
Cheers,
Paul
