Marvelous! My Dad used to fish Tellico wet flies. I smiled when I saw the name.

Nice take on the Tellico. Great use of the rubber floss. Wouldn't hesitate to fish it in #8-#10 this time of year. Could be a drowned grasshopper or yellowjacket...
Other than being led by a sort of jaded, meandering, creative muse, I can think of no other reason why I got away from tying & fishing the Tellico, or the Renegade, for that matter.
Thanks for the reminder.

Looks really nice Scott. I've never tied or fished a Tellico. Need to try it. I am thinking it would be a nice steelhead nymph locally.
