No 29. Oliv Rubber Damsel




I have over the years become a big fan of rubber legs of my flies. Rubber legs adds motion and dynamics. In flies that mostly are made of marabou, I think Rubber legs stand out a little extra

Here is a pattern on a damselnymph that i like 
Hook: Kamasan B175 size10 
Gold Head: brass or tungsten. 3,2mm 
Thread: Olive 
Tail: Olive marabou and four dark green or black rubber legs 
Body: Olive dubbing and two or four rubber legs 
Hackle: Olive rooster hackle. 
If you want to, you can tie knee joints on the rubber legs
