March Brown

Tied another Catskill dry fly this evening, the March Brown.
I used a vintage Mustad 94842 hook this time. The hook shank is maybe slightly on the shorter side compared to the Mustad 94840 but I really like the up eye of the 94842.

Hook: Mustad 94842, size 12
Thread: Veevus 16/0, color tan
Wings: Wooduck flank feathers
Body:  Tan colored fox dubbing
Hackle: Hebert Miner grizzly & Collins brown mixed





































































































































Update 15 Jan 2022:
The Catskill Fly Tyers Guild made a video about the history of the guild. All the sudden I recognised my March Brown (around 12:57)!
