Listers, Byard was so kind as to post a photo of an assortment of upwing-style mayfly patterns. They consist of the materials you've recently received in Co-op swap #2, i.e. Cock d'Leon tailing fibers, Winger feathers, and Whiting hackles. Add the rope-dub technique for the bodies, and the recipe is complete. Lots of different looks from the same materials. See url below.
Next will be some variations- spent-wing, delta wing, multiwing, etc. I'm also putting together a 'rope-dub sample-board' of bodies roped with various dubbings, both fuzzy and clean. I'll see if Byard will post these too. Tie one on time, DonO Thanks, Byard <http://www.virtualflybox.com/scrapbook/030212_dono.shtml>
