It's Spring baetis time ( or will be soon where you are).

This one uses duck flank for tails and body all at the same time.
so it's sort of a duck wing with parachute hackle, with a an extra-
long
tail that is both body and tail.
......quick and easy to tie, and it's an itty bitty, so exact
immitation isn't required.
That's the idea anyway.

pretty nifty, Sandy

I got a kick out of your "Bug for real Montana's" commentary also. I'm
giving serious thought to towing the trailer to Dillon or ??? (
suggestions? ) for the last part of April and May this year. I've been
leaving home June 1st for my summers but I'd like to sample the earlier
season. The idea of fishing thick baetis hatches in the cold and windy
doesn't bother me, but the "rest of the day" is a bit scary for a California
boy. ( I spent most of the day outside working dogs today dressed in a long
sleeved shirt, no coat .... we really don't "do Winter" here G)
