[cool][font "Pristina"][#008000][size 3]Actually it is a gold bead. Some times taking a picture under a high intensity lamp gets a bit distorted. Could have played around with the AWB [auto white balance] but what the hey. The recipe calls for a 3761Bl 10-14 hook. I used a Daiichi 1270 3X # 12. Color thread to match marabou tail & abdomen & copper wire for ribbing. I palmered the second layer of marabou to give it a fuzzy look.. I know that one palmers hackle but I guess that any material can be palmered. Rather a simple fly to tie.[/size][/#008000][/font]
