BLACK/GREEN TADPOLE

Tying:

Hook Long shank size 10
Weight Fine lead wire under head
Thread Black
Body Black chenille
Head Fluo green chenille
Tail Black marabou (don't cut)

Fishing Method:

Floating, intermediate and sinking lines with long leaders. Best slow figure-of-eights with occasional jerks. This fly undulates and the tail works superbly. It can also be used with long or short draws. It is a very good early season fly and in cold weather is usually our first choice.

Works well on stockies but can produce over-wintered fish and wily old brownies.
