Variations

The Rattle 'n Hum is a fly I've been using more and more of this season. I've eventually found a fly that I can go wading with and not have to worry about those irritating snag ups. I also haven't had the need to refin its design either.

Maybe change the materials I use now and then,but on a whole I'm very happy with this fly....and its a fish catcher as well. With this model I still used the black slinky fiber and contrasting bucktail but added some grizzly microbarbs for lateral lines and palmered on some brown rabbit zonker for the head instead of black raccoon fur. Then Bug-Bonded a couple of eyes on to finish it off.
