Sexy Legs

While out in Wyoming, I fished this pattern and it worked well. I was surprised because I had originally tied this pattern for Bass and carp, but the trout loved it too. It is another good all around pattern that works. It is a really simple and quick fly to tie.

Materials: Craft Fur, Dumbbell Eyes, Hackle Flash, Rubber Legs, Marabou (optional).
Tools: Bobbin, Vise, Scissors.
Hook: Any streamer hook will work.



Step 1: Tie down led dumbbell eyes.

Step 2: Tie rubber legs off the back. tie down a piece of hackle flash roughly 3" long and rap it up the hook shank keeping the gaps constant.

Step 3: Tie down craft fur on the top and bottom and secure with raps of threads in front of the craft fur.

Step 4: Whip finish and clip the ends of the craft fur.
