Red Fox Squirrel Nymph


Note: I learned this pattern at the Fly and Field commercial Web site (http://www.flyfield.com/). Dave Whitlock, the inventor, has it written up there and has some pictures of how the nymph should look. I have no affiliation with this company.
Nymph hook -- I used a Mustad 9671 size 14 weight with thin lead wire
tail -     red fox squirrel guard hairs tied short
rib -      fine gold wire
abdomen -  red fox squirrel belly fur blended with a little tan synthetic 
dubbing -  I used Midwest light tan.
thorax -   red fox squirrel back fur with guard hairs.
