I was rooting around Collin Innes' web site and found this Dee Fly. I liked it so I gave it a try!!
The pattern calls for a hook of 3" exactly and wings to be 3 1/2" exactly. My winging material was a bit short so I used a shorter hook.
Hook: To be 3" exactly - Alec Jackson 2091 shown
Tip: Small Oval Tinsel - Silver
Tail: GP Crest
Butt: Ostrich Herl
Body: Spot of Blue floss at rear then yellow, green, and blue in equal quantity
Hackle: Heron Grey roll feather - Blue Eared Pheasant shown
Throat: Jay hackle - Guinnea hen dyed to match shown - tied short
Wings: Spotted Turkey with black tips - 3 1/2" long
