As Mike says, in the UK this is an old Northern standard pattern
serving as a representation of the Iron Blue dun. A hackled fly
always fished wet.

the Dark Watchet is alsoe know by other names viz.

Iron Blue Dun
Little Iron Blue
Little Water-hen (when wings are needed the breast feather of the
water hen are used)
Little dark Dun


and, as any welshman worth his salt would know, is called,
formally, *paraleptophlebia adoptiva*.

yfitons
wayno(surprisingly, they are seen in numbers on big snowbird in
late march, early april.)
