Body (abdomen and thorax) Custom blend of rabbit fur from a hare's mask with fluorescent orange and fire orange Antron
Wing Natural coloured deer hair
How to tie it
Start the thread about one and a half eye lengths back from the eye and build a rounded underbody by wrapping up and down the shank.
Dub a fairly thin two inch noodle of the rabbit and orange Antron blend onto the thread and wrap it from the start of the bend up the body.
Cover the rest of the bare shank with thread to about the one third point.
Take a clump of natural deer hair, strip out the underfur, and stack it tips first, stacking several times.
Place the clump so the wing extends about a hook gap beyond the end of the body, take two loose wraps, pull tight, then take more wraps back to the abdomen and forward to the butts.
Lift the butts, take a few wraps directly in front, trim them close and cover them roughly with thread.
Dub a thin shorter noodle of the same dubbing, go behind the wing once, and build the thorax with the rest of it, forming a small head.
