Baby Dolphin

In September, I introduced a fly that uses materials we all have already purchased and used in SIFF tying in the past.  Here is a good use of the special style ahrex hook.  Add only one new material ( peacock sword) and we are ready to tackle this weedless attractive baby dolphin fly. Using the technique that we used for crab flies (tying small bundles (6) of long materials onto the hook) creates the full body.  Adding a realistic top fin with a peacock sword completes this creative pattern. — Regards, Ken Prager
