This fall found myself playing around with the Temple Dog Hair, I found this stuff to be great you can use little of it, but yet still get good profile and movement out of your flies. (For you tube fly guys it’s really awesome to tie with.) This fly fished last fall through the winter really well for me, especially on sunny days. It resembles a Sculpin or Goby.

This is a articulated fly tied on two hooks make sure you cut front hook when done.

Trailer Hook: Daiichi X510 Size 4
Tail: Chartreuse Ice Dub with Black Dog Hair Collar
Jointed together with Heavy Mono Maxima 15lb or Braided Line 20lb.
Front Hook: Just a old Streamer Hook 1 or 2x Long Depending on how big you want. (You will cut this hook).
Tail : Dub some more Chartreuse Ice Dub to make a shoulder then a little Black Dog Hair for a collar, then add some Blue Flashabou.

As you can see this is a pretty simple fly to tie and the Dog Hair is nice becuase a little is a lot. Like the Olive for clear water or sunny days. This fly is great for Dirty water or cloudy days. Good Luck.
