Golden Olive and Bronze

Golden Olive and Bronze
Hook - Mustad Model 94842 / Size 12
Thread - Pearsall's Gossamer Silk (Brown)
Hackle - Brahma Hen Neck (Dyed Golden Olive)
Abdomen - Pearsall's Gossamer Silk (Brown) - liberally waxed with cobblers wax
Thorax - Bronze Peacock Herl (two strands reinforced in silk dubbing loop)

I have to thank Idryfly (Mike) for the Brahma Hen and Bronze Peacock Herl. These were a couple of the items I received from the Great Feather fly tying contest. Mike - you were right. The Golden Olive is a wonderful color. I'll have a number of these flies in my box, come springtime. Thanks again.
