BWO Pattern

The above fly, my version of the Fuzzball (#22 in the picture) , is
the fly I expect I'll use most on my last day on the River this year
(tomorrow). A truly simple tie.

Tail (optional)- Couple strands micro fibbets, hackle fibers or zelon.

Body- Olive thread or Olive Uni-Stretch

Wing- Dun Snowshoe Hare


Tie in the tails. Wrap body. Tie in with a couple thread wraps a tuft
of grey snowshoe hare foot fur with tips just reaching the start of
the hook bend. Then double the remainder of the tuft back over the the
body and the wing. Tie down and finish head. Trim the doubled over
wing to the same length as the bottom part of the wing (i.e. to the
start of the hook bend.) Soak with Watershed or similiar over night or
just dope it up with floatant on stream and go fishing. Works dry but
can be retrieved back "damp".
