Re: [VFB] Rainbow Warrior?

Hi Joyce

    I was unable to find the picture. Do you take the holo over the bead and make the head or behind.

Rainbow warrior

    Hook: size 16 dry fly

    Thread: red

    Head: silver lined bead

    Tail: pheasant

    Body, red thread

    Overbody: clear holographic flash

    Thorax cover, the same

    Thorax: rainbow scud dubbing

smash barb and slide on bead. With hook in vice, tie on red thread, tie on holo wide flash, wind the hook shank with red thread in an even cover. Wind the strip of holo flash over the thread to the thorax areaa, tie down and flip back toward bend of hook but do not cut off. Dub rainbow dubbing around the bead, bring the holo flash over to be the thorax cover and tie down with a neat red head. A killer fly given me by its inventor, Lance Egan, owner of several Utah fishing records. Joyce

PS: I believe that there is a picture on Byard's swap page as I tied this for a midge swap.
