Leisenring

Hi Again,
Dick Clark was one of Leisenring's students along with Vern Hidy, who
co-authored Leisenring's book. The dubbing block works quite well. I
have one myself. I also use a piece of mat board for dubbing bodies,
Leisenring style.

This is fairly simple.

Flymphs are fished much like soft-hackles, but are especially effective
with active retrieves like the Leisenring Lift. Hidy liked to blot the
fly between casts to help it trap air in the fur and hackle fibers. He
was the originator of the term, "flymph" or half fly, half nymph. They
can also be fished like any standard wet fly.
