Fly question - fish1on - 05-27-2011 OK, got this fly from a friend and his request was to see if I can make a few for him? Well, I said sure....I will try my best. For the most part it seems to be a thinned out wooly but maybe it is called something else?? Any suggestions for material and the actual name?

Furnace hackle. Again I say it looks like a play on a Salmon Grub Tied by Rasevic Živadin [signature] Re: [flygoddess] Fly question - thebug - 05-29-2011 is it a macky special? Kinda like a sandyfly nymph but with hackle and a bit bigger [signature] Re: [thebug] Fly question - Bmarsh - 05-29-2011 [quote thebug]is it a macky special?

A bunch of different flies in one, but somewhere someone named it. [signature]
