Klinkhammer and CDC Dry Fly variation

Another little dry fly that I have had some good success with is this Klinkhammer and CDC variation. I normally use it on a long 6x or 7x leader in clear slow flowing pools.

MATERIALS

HOOK: Partride Xtreme Klinkhammer hook or Grip14723BL
BODY: Black Hends Body Quill and DMC 4012 thread twisted together
HACKLE: Black hackle and CDC Fibres
THORAX: Peacock hearl
POST: Fl. Red Antron

    Simply brilliant. Nice profile and the CDC is sure to mimic movement and the Hends Body Quill looks great. I'll have to order some Hends from a shop in the overseas.

    I can see this fly working in the waters I fish and I love CDC.

    Thanks guys.

    Simon, I will share a few with you when you are back this side of the pond.

    Fly and Fin, I have tied a few flies with the body quill and like it more and more.
