No son patrones con menor importancia que los del Tomo 2, sino que en aquel seleccioné las moscas más representativas por uso u atado. Encontrarán aquí moscas que pueden pensar como “imprescindibles” para un lugar u ocasión especial. Si bien el objetivo del libro son los hispanoparlantes, llegado hasta aquí, verán algunos patrones en inglés, supongo que si empiezan con moscas de este tomo, tienen las cosas más o menos claras!! y ya un poco empapado en el léxico “técnico” de este arte, sino vaya al tomo 6. Si ha llegado hasta aquí, ya podemos con las recetas de las moscas, armar las nuestras.

Hay otra versión en Flyfishing Argentina Anzuelo: Salmonero # 3.0 de Mustad Hilo: 3/0 al tono tag: lana o seda roja cuerpo: chenille o lana naranja ribbing: alambre de cobre fino ala: conejo oliva cabeza: dubbing gris Tromba Creador: Ginés Gomaris RECETA Vale recordar como nació este streamer: simplemente porque mis atadores, decian que la Matuka les llevaba demasiado tiempo... Totalmente de atado simple, se trata de presentar sobre un anzuelo pata larga - 9672 o similar - dos pares de plumas de gallo o gallina, atadas sobre el último cuarto del cuerpo del anzuelo - que quedará al descubierto - al que se le adosarán cuatro, tres o dos pares de pluma de pavo real en sus laterales. El resto del cuerpo se cubre de tinsel dorado y a continuación se anilla una pluma de gallo de igual color, en función del hackle, apenas una vuelta y media, se hace la cabeza y listo!. Sinceramente con plumas Grizzly - bataraces - es mortífera. Hay pescadores que han logrado piques simplemente dejándolas derivar, pero personalmente las hago trabajar mucho. Técnica prioritaria: lanzar un poco arriba de la correntada; a continuación concretar un mend Anzuelo: Mustad 9672 o similar Hilo: 3/0 al tono cola: dos pares de plumas bataraz y cuatro pares de fibras de pavo real cuerpo: tinsel dorado collar: una pluma igual a la de la cola una vuelta y media. La imagen a lograr es la de una pequeña trucha tratando de cruzar el río o tratando de llegar a aguas más tranquilas para su vida si de trabajarla en lagos se trata. La idea original fue para ser utilizada en días de mucho viento, especialmente en momentos de pre-temporal y en modelos no “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 51 contrario a la corriente (y a la teoría...). De esta forma, quedamos el pescador y la tromba frente a frente, mientras la línea se va desplazando aguas abajo, apenas, muy poco. Lo suficiente para formar un arco contrario a la corriente!. En ese momento, hay que iniciar el recogido que deberá ser lento, aunque a veces cambiante. Eso es, que no sea siempre igual. Si el mend se hace en forma normal, el pececillo (la tromba), tendría que remontar la corriente. En cambio con el tipo de mend, (enmienda) al revés - anormal - el pececillo atraviesa la corriente, pero demostrando que la corriente lo fuerza. Esto es así porque al principio el streamer corta la corriente, - estamos hablando de corriente normal y no muy rápida - en forma recta, pero luego se ve un poco impelido por la misma y termina ingresando a la costa, a las aguas bajas, un poco más abajo de donde inició su periplo. Si se hiciera el mend en la forma teóricamente correcta, la tromba vendría a terminar su recorrido, mucho más aguas abajo. menores al número 2, donde pareciera que para las grandes truchas es un verdadero imán, puesto que suben con una fiereza realmente sorprendente. Esta fiereza sumada al tema pretemporal gestaron el nombre de "Tromba". Sin embargo, al pasar los años, las experiencias y sugerencias de otros pescadores (Trotz, Manfred y Amadori) y otros grandes amigos, concretaron la conveniencia de atarlas también en anzuelos más chicos, a punto tal de que hace dos años, se fabrican desde el nro. 10 (impecables para pescar truchas grandes en aguas angostas y de poca correntada y profundidad). Si en su origen, las até primero con plumas grizzly claras (poca luz) o con grizzly oscuro (algo de luz en pre-temporal), luego seguí con el negro y el blue dun o similar. Ahora es posible atarlas también con otros colores, pero mis preferidos son los enunciados. Foto y textos extraidos del libro "Mosqueando Truchas" de Ginés Gomaris. Jabalí Fuente: http://www.flyfishingargentina.com/moscas/ninfas/jabali.html Creador: José "Bebe" Anchorena Foto: del libro "mosqueando truchas" de Ginés Gomariz. RECETA La segunda versión a cargo de Juan Pablo Gozio: La receta que uso yo para la jabalí es una que había descrito el Bebe Anchorena en un artículo en la revista Roll Cast (el antepasado del boletín mosquero de la AAPM) hace muchos años, allá por los 80. Es muy simple y les diría que es una hare´s ear con dubbing de jabalí. En realidad hay muchas ninfas que podemos atar con jabalí: stones, caddis, etc. Anzuelo: Muestad 3906B # 8 - 14 Hilo: marrón cola: pavo común marrón o cola de faisán abdomen: Dubbing de pelo de jabalí atado flojo torax: igual al abdomen pero mayor volumen ribete: tinsel oval dorado fino caja de alas: pavo común marrón o cola de faisan patas: partridge marrón o pluma de perdiz chica. Tenemos dos versiones de la receta con “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 52 Acá va la receta del Bebe: Anzuelo: Mustad 3906B o similar # 6 -14 Hilo: beige clarito Cola: fibras de Wooduck o similar Ribbing: alambre de cobre Abdomen: dubbing de jabalí puesto en la forma tradicional sobre el hilo y luego hecho un loop y retorcido Wingcase: segmento de pluma de pavo Torax: dubbing de jabalí atado en loop en la forma tradicional, es decir hacer el loop e ir metiendo las fibras de dubbing en perpendicular al loop y luego retorcer Patas: (opcional) igual que la cola atadas a los costados o beard style. El tema principal con esta mosca es el color del dubbing. El jabalí, en crudo, viene con mucha grasa y es difícil quitarle el dubbing (sobre todo si está vivo...). Por eso el mayor trabajo es obtener el dubbing (underfur - bajo pelo). Una vez obtenida una cantidad adecuada, el proceso de teñido es crítico. Primero se debe sacar toda la grasa con shampoo (el detergente es agresivo para el pelo) en varios lavados. Con el pelo limpio se puede teñir con anilinas (preferentemente en frío para no quemar el pelo) o con tinturas para pelo (atenti las damas). Los mejores colores son: natural, marrón, negro y verde oliva. Espero les sirva, es una mosca "all-around" como dirían los americanos, pudiendo variar tamaños y construcción para imitar distintas formas de vida. comentarios y anotaciones (sin contar que en el negocio de Jorge Cardillo en San Martín de los Andes hemos visto esta mosca en una tercer versión). La primera corresponde a Ginés Gomariz y es la que sigue: Alguna vez tuve que aclarar que yo no había sido el primero en escribir sobre la pesca de tarariras con artificiales. Quedó claro entonces que el mérito era y le correspondía al gran amigo que fue ROBERTO ZAPICO ANTUÑA. En éste de la gran JABALI, también es necesario una aclaración que me reconforta, porque al mismo tiempo que recordar al gran Zapico, esta es la oportunidad de homenajear a un grande total: el Bebe Anchorena, diez como persona y diez como pescador. Porque fue él quien utilizó por vez primera el material. y fue el Bebe quien, una vez más, confió en mí y a la semana de su descubrimiento, me lo transmitió en forma directa, esto es, dándome un ejemplar por él atado. Esta ninfa no difiere en nada al atado convencional. Consta de una pequeña cola que se aposenta sobre casi la curva del anzuelo, que puede ser de pavo común marrón o faisán; luego y aquí viene lo interesante y mortífero, el dubbing se confecciona con el vellón o pelo base o sotto pelo, del jabalí. Este dubbing es anillado por tinsel fino, dorado, que al igual que en la gran mayoría de las ninfas, Hare's Ear, a la que suplanta con creces por ejemplo- debe «introducirse» en el dubbing. Esto significa que el dubbing no debe en todos los casos atarse en forma muy ceñida. A partir del último cuarto del cuerpo o pata del anzuelo, se fija fibras de pavo común o de faisán de color marrón y una pluma de partridge marrón que puede suplantarse por perdiz chica nuestra. Se sigue con el dubbing de jabalí dándole mayor volumen, luego se ata dando vuelta desde la parte más fina de la pluma -que se colocará invertida-, se fija con no más de dos vueltas, se corta el sobrante y se cubre con las fibras de pavo común o faisán. Se concreta el atado con pocas vueltas siempre de hilo marrón y a continuación se pasa cemento sobre la montura y el final del atado o mínima cabeza... A mi criterio, una mosca bien atada y salvo casos especiales, debe man- “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 53 tenerse bien, por lo menos, hasta la cantidad de diez a más piques. Generalmente una mosca así atada, de todas formas al final de ese periplo, queda defectuosa. No ocurre así con las ninfas y en especial con las Hare's Ear y menos aún con la Jabalí. Cuanto más se «deshilacha», mejor capta. Le hemos dado muchas vueltas verbales con el Bebe al éxito de esta ninfa y lo único que encontramos es que debe ser por su tipo de presencia translúcida ya la movilidad que presenta, justamente, cuando se deshilacha. Es naturalmente una ninfa emergente, por cuanto ni al Bebe ni a mí, se nos ocurriría colocar lastre, por lo tanto, parte de lo relatado para accionar la Hare's, vale para este caso también. Las ato en anzuelos 94840 o similares para la venta, y en 94845 y fundamentalmente en la serie 200R de Tiemco también. Otras series muy buenas son las 700B, 135 Scud de Dai-Riki. Uso anzuelos desde el14 al... 8 y hasta a veces un 4... En la gran mayoría atados en anzuelos de Tiemco, serie ya enunciada. Pero usando ó las tres cuarta partes ó directamente e150% de la pata del anzuelo. Ocurre que con esta anzuelo la clavada no es fácil. Una vez lograda, es harto difícil que el pez-cado se libere, pero es común perder muchos piques. Y esto no es sólamente atribuible al anzuelo, sino a la forma de tomar por parte de nuestra amiga la trucha. En general casi no muerde, sino que pareciera que absorbiera, que aspirara cual un pejerrey, tomando moscas. Es realmente una ninfa increlble y, arriesgo, cuasi insuperable. Pero vale ayudarla. Por caso ejemplar, con ellídery su final. Es sin ninguna duda, muy importante maniobrar con líderes largos, que le permitirán un accionar bien liberado, que a su vez en aguas levemente rápidas, nos permitirá accionar constantemente con la caña. Por favor ubíquese en función de pesca; lanzamos un poco, no mucho, por debajo de nuestra ubicación. Cuando la ninfa llega a tomar contacto con el agua, levante la caña y deje deslizar el par de metros que tiene en la mano opuesta a la que sostiene la caña... A continuación, con línea «blanda» en el agua, empiece “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 54 en forma constante, suave, de acuerdo con las innumerables corrientes superficiales de las aguas donde estamos pescando, a concretar pequeños mends, enmiendas que en realidad, deben llevar dos sentidos: el de mantener un control por supuesto, ante una posible picada, pero, fundamentalmente, para darle a la ninfa un sentido de vida. Esa ninfa, en su reacción natural, está buscando llegar a la superficie sacudiendo su cuerpo a los efectos de desprender el caparazón que sujeta sus surgentes alas... Y este es el momento que espera la trucha para tomarla. Lo he visto infinidad de veces actuando como guía. Cuando la ninfa llega a ubicarse en forma directa -río abajo- de la ubicación del pescador, una trucha que viene acompañando el derivaje, se queda sin atacar, casi colocando su trompa tocando al cebo. Es cuando en la mayoría de los casos cometemos error: no debe recogerse precipitamente sino todo lo contrario. Debe traccionarse la ninfa en forma por demás suave y lenta; AQU I es cuando la trucha en la mayoría de los casos, se abalanza sobre la Jabalí... Desde tres metros hasta 3,60 he utilizado y recomiendo en el largo del líder. Final máximo para tamaños grandes, el 0,20. Pero mejor resulta utilizar un final del 0, 15 en pequeños y medianos ríos y del 0, 18 en los semejantes al Chimehuín. Con Jabalíes atadas en anzuelos del doce, he logrado capturas de más de tres kilos. Con monstruos atadas en anzuelos del ocho al cuatro, muchas son las capturas de grandes ejemplares... La receta que uso yo para la jabalí es una que había descrito el Bebe Anchorena en un artículo en la revista Roll Cast (el antepasado del boletín mosquero de la AAPM) hace muchos años, allá por los 80.

The plume of CdC makes the fly hanging just under the surface. The difficulty is to get the right amount of CdC. You have to test. The fly is tied in the hook bend only. I got the idea from the Leon Links book “Tying Flies with CDC” where you can read about the shuttlecocks of Clive Perkins and see variants from Paul Canning, Chris Howitt and Elie Beerten.

Also it is quite transparent in the water which might be one reason for its success. The eyes are not compulsory but look nice if you want to take the trouble to attach them. The one in the picture has already caught some fish, so it doesn’t look brandnew. Tying notes: Thread conehead onto hook, wind on thread, bind in doll hair strip and wind doll hair right into the conehead so that it sits relatively tight. Finish with half hitches and attach eyes with superglue or any other glue that keeps the eyes on for a minute or two. Ugly Mayfly Fly: Marcus Ruoff, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: any long shank dry fly hook in size 8-12 Thread: To match body color Body and extended body: white foam cut square to the thickness desired Wing: two similar CDC-feathers Hackle (optional): you might leave it out or take the trouble to add a bit of fanciness to the pattern by adding a parachute hackle like in the picture. This fly would catch equally well without the hackle! Background: This must rate as about the ugliest mayfly pattern ever! This is not a picture postcard, naturalistic, breathing, lifelike creation as most of the big mayflies you normally see. But boy this one is one hell of a fish catcher. As you might know we have quite a few chalk streams here in Southern Germany with big, famous hatches of big mayflies. It is here that this fly proved its effectiveness time and time again. My friends and I have really given a lot of patterns at different waters a try because the fish can be quite selective. We have tried everything from e.g. Oliver Edwards, Gerhard Laible and other impressionistic and classic patterns etc. but this one really stood out anywhere we were fortunate “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 135 enough to experience this wonderful hatch. White was the most effective colour so far, although we have tried to copy the more yellow-like colour of the naturals. You might want to try this out or adjust the colour to your needs.The helicopter effect of most of these big flies is not too bad with this one either if you try to match the CDCwings.

Tied down at rear and folded back to head. Clip leaving a lip above the head. Body: Ice Chenille or Estaz Throat: Red hackle or red Lite Brite Gurgle-Pop Popper Fly: Peter Frailey, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Size 8 dry fly hook Thread: White Danville 3/0 or Flat-waxed Tail: Chartreuse Widows Web (or other crinkly synthetic yarn, zelon, etc) Underbody: 5/16th-inch wide strip of 2mm yellow foam, tied down in three places to create segments Overbody: Same strip of foam as above folded forward and tied down at the front segment Legs: Round orange rubber leg material Note: This is my variation of Jack Gartside’s renowned Gurgler. I tie it with a more pronounced lower “lip” to create a cupped popper face. It also resembles a large foam beetle with a tail! Whatever it is, it is my favorite and most frequently used surface fly for warm-water species. Size 8 works well for the panfish and small bass I find in local farm ponds. Size 4 works nicely when targeting larger bass. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 136 Tip: For a nice bass bug on a size 4 hook, cut your foam slightly wider. You might try slightly thicker foam (I use an evazote foam from Rainy’s) or two layers of foam of the same or different colors. Hare & Herl Bugger Fly: Peter Frailey, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: size 14 3xl or 12 2xl Thread: Black Danville 3/0 Weight: 10 wraps of thin lead wire and/or beadhead Tail: Rabbit fur Body: 3-5 peacock herls and 2 strands of black Krystal flash, all twisted together and wrapped the length of the body Hackle: Dun hen neck hackle Note: This small bugger has worked everywhere I’ve tried it, from tailwater fisheries with suspicious trout to tannic colored warm water with smallmouth bass. When wet it looks very much like the damselfly nymphs that hatch all season in most of my local waters. Tip: A marabou tail will work, but I prefer rabbit fur for a durable tail material on small buggers. Cut short pieces from zonker strips to experiment with different color tails.

I have won competitions on this fly when everyone else struggled. It is small enough not to frighten fish, but bright enough to attract them. It got its name when my boat partner beat me 7-1 in a competition using this fly. He gave me one at the end of the day. It was originally an orange lure, but I tried the coral colored one and it was even better than the original. The scruffier it gets, the more the fish like it. It is also a good lure for perch. 88 Fly: Alberto Jimeno, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: 2X long nymph hook, sizes 6-10 Thread: brown or black, 3/0 Body: back 2/3 red wire, front 1/3 green floss Wing: woodduck flank Collar: grizzly hackle “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 141 Backcountry Muddler Fly: Alberto Jimeno, Photographs: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Gamakatsu B10S, size 4 Thread: yellow 3/0 for tail/wing, white flat-waxed nylon for head, tan 3/0 for whip finish Tail & wing: yellow marabou; silver Flashabou under grizzly dyed yellow hackle on the sides of the yellow marabou Collar: natural deer hair Collar: natural deer hair Eyes: red plastic Note: This is a great smallmouth bass pattern. It can be fished dry with a floating line or subsurface using a sink tip. I also tie it in orange and in white. The orange version uses gold flashabou and brown grizzly hackles. The white version uses pearl Flashabou and grizzly hackles.

The wider the mink strip, the slower the fly will sink.

But a problem arose in that the fly's darker wing was difficult to see in bright light, so a friend, Stu Garrison, and I came up with the idea of placing lighter colored hair over the darker natural deer. We tried various colors, but found that white was the most visible to different fishermen in various circumstances. Of course the body and hackle color can be changed to more closely match the natural. The real bonus this fly supplies over an Elk Hair Caddis is the wing being a bit more mottled as well as being visible in both dark shadowed as well as brightly lit situations. Cylinder Popper (blue tiger) Fly: Jerry Caruso, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Straight eyed hook(light wire preferred), 3 to 4XL, size 10-1 Thread: To match foam color Tail: Marabou (or whatever) Body/hackle: White foam cylinder(1/4 to 1/2 inch) Floatation: Dry or Saddle Sparkle: Fabric Paint(Icicle Sparkle) Eyes: 3-D Epoxy Color: Permanent Markers Note: Just a flat faced cylinder popper. I like to use a white cylinder to give me more color options. One in the vise wrap the hook shank with thread. I use a hot needle to burn a hole through the cylinder. Then I coat the hook shank with super glue and quickly slide the cylinder on the shank. I will color the cylinder (I like white, chartreuse, Fire Tiger, Blue Tiger, and Orange Tiger). Coat with the fabric paint. Let dry. Add a second coat of color and eyes. Add second coat of fabric paint or epoxy. When dry tie in tail and hackle. Color to match the body. Hackle can be trimmed flat on bottom if you want. I tie these in various sizes and lengths. I will also slide E-Z body or Corsair tubing over them for a more tapered popper. Eyes go over the hook point not in the front. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 144 Elver Fly: Jerry Caruso, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Owner 5105 or Gamakatsu C145 Size 2-8 Thread: Black Body: PolaFibre stacked, tied in behind the eye. Black over Olive over White Flash: Sparkleflash/TD> Eyes: 3-D Epoxy Head: Area from eye to just past hook bend is coated with Flex-Loc(you can also use epoxy) Note: Tied to imitate small American eels that swim up the Delaware River during the spring. There about 3-4 inches long. Just about any gamefish in the river will eat these eels. For salt water this makes a passable Sand eel(which is a fish not an eel). Tied using longer materials to about 8-12 inches long with a little more bulk. It can be used to imitate the eels used by those livelining for stripers in the fall. Although I used black thread in this pattern. Clear mono would be a better choice. Estaz Bug Fly: Jerry Caruso, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Tiemco 101, size 4 to 12 Thread: White(match the color of the Estaz) Weight: Lead wire(wrapped in middle of hook shank) Tail: White Marabou or Arctic Fox over flash material of choice Body: White Estaz(see comments) Note: This is a good pattern. It imitates nothing natural, but does a fair imitation of a Mr. Twister Grub. I have caught everything from Snapper Blues to Trout on it. My biggest fly rod smallmouth, 18 inches, fell for a size 4 white one. A very simple tie. Wrap your lead wire around the shank. Tie in sparse amount of flash material(about 10 strands) then tie in your marabou or arctic fox. Tie in the estaz, wrap forward and tie off, build a thread head. Now take your scissors and trim, give it a crew cut. It should have a grub shape when done. How to fish. I have caught fish dead drifting it, I have had them pick up as it was lying on the bottom, or when stripped in. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 145 Fun Foam Popper Fly: Jerry Caruso, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Any dry fly hook, standard size to 3XL Thread: To match foam color Tail: Marabou Body/hackle: Dry Fly or Saddle hackle Floatation: Circle punched from craft foam Note: An easy and effective pattern. It was shown to me by a local tyer, whose name escapes me, about 5 years ago. I use craft store foam either 1/16 or 1/8 inch, I prefer 1/8 inch when I can get it. Punch various size circles out of it. I use expended brass, from .38 Special to 12 Ga. shotgun to punch my circles out. Put your hook in the vise. Wrap some thread behind the eye. I like to add a drop of super glue to the thread covered area. Pinch the foam circle at the bottom and slide it onto the hook shank just behind the eye. Then wrap it into place. If done right it should form a cupped popper head. Bring the thread to the back of the hook tie in your marabou tail. You can add some flash if you want. Then tie in your hackle by the tip and wrap forward to right behind the head. Tie off and trim excess. Then take your scissors and trim the hackle flat on the bottom. The eyes on this fly are pin heads, but a dot of fabric paint or no eyes at all will do just as well. I tie from size 12 to size 2. It pushes a lot a water when stripped. At rest, the tail end sinks and the fly will sit vertical until stripped. I tie it mainly in white, chartreuse and yellow, but it can be tied in whatever color combination that suits yours or the fish's fancy. Little Black Caddis Fly: Jerry Caruso, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Tiemco 2488, size 20 Thread: Black, 12/0 Body: Black CDC Feather tied in by the tip and wrapped Wing: Black CDC Note: Ridley Creek, here in SE PA has an excellent hatch of these caddis in the spring. I tied up a pattern based on information in a book which said to use a size 14 dry fly hook. Anyway, the pattern was way to big, and did not get a look from the trout. Caught a few caddis and took them home with me. This pattern was the result. It is based on the CDC and Elk. There was not any deer or elk hair small enough so I opted to use Black CDC for the wing. Since these caddis "walk" on the water, heading toward the shore, most action occurs at the end of the drift as the fly starts to swing. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 146 Little Brown Stone Fly: Jerry Caruso, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Tiemco 101 Size 14-18 Thread: Black Body: Butt end Red Brown CDC, rest Dark Brown CDC Wing: Gray Fluoro Fibre Hackle: Dark Gray Grizzly or Dark Dun trimmed flat on the bottom Note: I tie this pattern to imitate the Little Brown Stone Fly we have here in the East. The CDC feather is tied in by the tip and wrapped like a CDC&Elk. I trim the flaring barbules. Start with the Red Brown CDC make a couple of wraps (can't be sure if this is an egg sac) trim, then tie in Dark Brown CDC and wrap forward. Wissahickon Midge Fly: Jerry Caruso, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Tiemco 2488 size 16-30, Tiemco 501, size 28, Tiemco 518 size 32 Thread: Black 12/0 or smaller Body: Red Brown and Black CDC feather Wing: White CDC Head: Black Thread Note: Actually based on a gnat or black fly but it's my go to "midge" pattern. Best size seems to be a 22. Body is CDC feathers tied in by the tip, and wrapped like a CDC&Elk. When I get down to the smaller sizes, I use just the barbules for the body. Wing is a clump of white CDC. Initially tied as a dry, discovered by accident that it's equally effective when wet and fished as a dropper.

Olive Usual Fly: Steve Williams, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Orvis standard dryfly-#16 Thread/head: Danville's 6/0-Olive Wing: A clump of snowshoe hare's foot hair, stained grey with a Pantone marker Tail: Another, but shorter, clump of snowshoe hare's foot hair, stained brown or grey with a Pantone marker Body: Dubbed with a scruffy blend of fox and rabbit fur, dyed olive This fly is based on the original Usual tied by Francis Betters of New York. The original is a fine “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 158 fly, but somewhat limited because of it's monotone grey/brown color. I tye this in a neater, trimmer style than the original and choose colors for the body and wing that match any number of mayfly hatches. The character remains faithful to the original. Over the past 8 years or so, "Usuals" have become my dryfly of first choice for mayfly hatches. Sulfur Comparadun Fly: Steve Williams, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Orvis Dryfly, #14 Thread: Danville's 6/0, yellow Tail: Dun-colored mink tail guard hairs - 3 each side Body: Blonde red fox fur dyed sulfur yellow Wing: Light-colored coastal deer hair This is a good fly for the sulfur hatch. I carry it tied with orange will take one over the other. Also good in #16. Yellow Bellied Mattress Thrasher Fly: Steve Williams, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Orvis dry fly 2X long. Sizes #10 & #8 Thread: Black prewaxed nylon 6/0 Abdomen: A mixture of black seal fur and black rabbit Wing: Fine textured deer hair tied flat along the abdomen Thorax: A mixture of pale yellow seal fur and pale yellow rabbit Hackle: Grizzly dry fly hackle palmered in 5-6 open turns over the thorax and clipped flush on the bottom Tying notes: I was introduced to this pattern on the AuSable River in Michigan during the 1970s. Its' low profile and flush floating character combine to make it a very good fly where trout can take a good look at imitations. It also floats well on rough water. This has proven to be a good fly in other colors wherever stone flies are present. I also tie it with yellow abdomen and thorax, and with rusty brown abdomen and yellow thorax. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 159 Polar Coachman Fly: Ken Driedger, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Salmon 1/0-6 Thread: Unithread 6/0, Wine Tail: Golden Pheasant tippet fibers Body: Peacock herl, red floss, peacock herl Hackle: Ringneck Pheasant rump feather, folded Wing: Polar Bear Fished damp, or full wet in the oily water of late fall. Steelhead seem attracted to the polar bear wing, which goes translucent in the swim. Light is transmitted as only polar bear hair can do. Egg Sucking Leech, Green Egg Variant Fly: Ken Driedger, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Salmon 2/0-4 Thread: Unithread 6/0, Wine Tail: Rabbit strip Body: Black chenille Hackle: Long, webby schlappen Ribbing: Copper tinsel counterwound Egghead: Hot chartreuse chenille Fished wet all season, on a tight line, either damp, or full wet, and allowed to swim on the downstream hang for a few moments before a slow jerky retrieve. Before copper tinsel was readily available, copper pot scrubbers (Chore Boys/Girls) were unravelled and the resulting copper tinsel used.

Rogue Steelhead take them in the warmer times, while angling for Pinks. .08 Fly: Ken Driedger, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Salmon 2/0-6 Thread: Unithread 6/0, Purple Tail: Purple marabou short, about 1/2 inch long Body: Black and pink acrylic yarns, woven Hackle: Long, soft, ordinary Barred Rock, as long in the feather and the fiber as you can find, palmered over body, with the first wrap veiling the tail Wing: Purple Marabou short, tied vertical, about 3/4 body length The body is plumped up with a commercial nymph form, or tag ends of the yarns, doubled back and forth as the underbody. Fished damp, or full wet. Created under the unfluence... hence the name; .08 being the maximum blood alcohol content for driving in Canada, and many U.S.A. states. The fly undgergoes a startling transformation when wet, and ought not to be dismissed as a bad dream. The strikes are hard, with very few short takes. If the maker uses 'genetic'grizzly, then one side of the feather should be stripped, to keep the barb count low. Larger .08's are known as "5-day benders", regular sized ones arealso known as "drunks", fancy ones are known as "Sp8's", and collectively,they aka as "Barflies" Note: Excellent instructions for the parallel weave can be found in the latest reference book by Leeson and Schollmeyer. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 161 Purple Peril Variant Fly: Ken Driedger, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Salmon 2/0-6 Thread: Unithread 6/0, Wine Tail: Grey squirrel, well marked Body: Dubbed purple seal's fur Hackle: Silver Unitinsel mylar, counterwound Wing: Grey squirrel, well marked Hackle: Webby purpleschlappen A time-proven pattern, fished damp, or full wet.

His style is fast and efficient, like the great Art Flick. Whenever I get the chance to fish with him, I am humbled. On any given day, for every fish I catch, he will take 3 or 4. Dean introduced me to this great sport, and has been my inspiration to keep at it. Dean’s flies are always great fish catchers, and they are simple to tie. This aquatic worm fly is possibly the simplest fly I have even seen, and it breaks the tradition of common fly tying. But, toss it over any large trout, and they don’t seem to care how long it took you or that it isn’t a “real fly” - they just care that it looks like food! I know a spring creek in Washington where this pattern catches more fish than everything else combined. Fish Dean’s Worm close the bottom, and be ready as takes can be hard to detect. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 178 Freight Train Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Mustad salmon fly hook, size 4-6 Thread: 3/0 black uni-thread Tail: Purple Hackle Fibers Rib: Small silver tinsel Body: Orange floss, Then Pink Pheasant tail, followed by peacock Wing: White calf tail Note: This fly was not designed by me or by any local fishermen. The great Randal Kauffman designed this fly, and popularized it on the famous steelhead rivers of Oregon. But I am including it because it has special value to me. This is the pattern I took my first steelhead on, while fishing the Deschutes River with my dad. Fish this fly using a down and across method, let it swing until it is fully below you, then pick up and cast again. This method is very methodical, and sometimes you will forget that you are even fishing at all. Cast, swing, step, and repeat. A peaceful rhythmic motion you soon become absorbed with. You realize what this sort of fishing is about a solitary game, worlds apart from common trout fishing. There are no loud fisherman and their rude guides who care nothing about the river or its needs. It’s just you, and the fish Girdle Bug Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Size 2-12 3x long nymph hook Thread: 3/0 black uni-thread Weight: Tungsten bead, lead wire rapped around the shank Body: Variegated chenille Legs: Silicon, pumpkin fleck Note: The Girdle Bug is perhaps the secret pattern of a few local experts on the famous Grand Rhonde River in Oregon. Last year, while fishing a short stretch of the Rhonde, one of my close friends took fourteen steelhead in under one hour. I didn’t believe him until a week later when he showed me the photos of that amazing day. If that isn’t a testament to the effectiveness of this fly, I don’t know what is. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 179 Grizzly Renegade Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Size 8-14 short shank dry fly hook Thread: brown size 70 ultra thread Tag: Small silver tinsel Back hackle: Grizzly rooster neck Body: Peacock herl Front hackle: Brown rooster neck Note: “Dad, Fish on!” I shouted desperately as a large trout sped away with my fly firmly hooked in its jaw. I was only 11, and this was my first brown trout. Hairy Gammarus Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: size 16 scuds, flattened out Thread: Grey 8/0 uni-thread Weight: Lead wire wrapped around shank Body: Hare's ear Hairline dubbing Note: The Hairy Gammarus is an easy pattern to tie, which will catch a lot of fish. It’s a great fly for beginners to tie. I like to fish this fly behind a larger pattern, such as a damsel nymph or a bead head Copper John. One of my largest trout, a fish well over 30 inches, fell to this pattern one June evening. Using a scud imitation like this fly will put you on large fish, because scuds are a main food source for large trout. Ice Fly Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Size 12-scud hook Thread: 8/0 grey uni-thread Weight: Small brass bead Tail: Dark pink marabou Rib: small silver tinsel Body: Dark pink ice dubbing Note: This is a great pattern for small, still waters. I fish this pattern similarly to a chironomid. Let it sink for about 20 seconds, and then slowly retrieve the fly, in 4-6 inch strips. While the Ice Fly doesn’t imitate anything in particular, it does have a lot of flash and movement. The Ice Fly is a great producer year round, and a great fly to try when nothing else seems to strike the fish’s fancy. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 180 Mac Daddy Fly: Andy Simon, photographs: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Size 4-10 3x long nymph hook Thread: 6/0 dark red uni-thread Eyes: Lead eyes Weight: Lead wire wrapped around that hook Claws: Matched pair of pheasant body feather Rear legs: Orange zonked strip, rapped around shank Body: Orange rabbit dubbing Feelers: Pheasant tail fibers Hackle: Brown rooster neck, tied palmer style Rib: Large green ultra wire Shellback: Olive Raffia, with a coat of Softex over it Note: This is a great pattern for large trout and bass anywhere crawfish live. This fly is a little time consuming to tie, but its well worth it. The great action it provides attracts fish that don’t even look at other offerings. Fish the Mac Daddy close to the bottom, with 6-inch strips. Every 5 or so strips, give the fly an aggressive strip twice as long and twice as fast as the normal strip. Mahogany and Peacock Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Size 14-18 dry fly Thread: Mahogany size 70 ultra thread Tail: Brown hackle fibers Rib: Brown quill Body: Mahogany thread Wingpost: Natural cdc Hackle: Peacock Thorax: brown rooster neck hackle Note: This beautiful dry fly is one of my favorites to tie. One day last year I was fishing a small creek near my home, when I saw a few rusty duns coming off the water and soon it turned into a fullscale hatch. The only problem was I didn’t have anything in my box to match the duns, so I fished with an Adams the rest of the day, only catching a few fish. I was back the next day, determined not to let the same thing happen and I was armed with a fly I had tied the night before. Right on “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 181 queue, the duns started coming off the water and the fish were rising. I cast out with hands shaking and high expectations, but to my disappointment my fly sank like a rock, and without my floatant that day, I was helpless. Back to the drawing board, I needed a pattern that would work quickly as the hatch would be over in a few days. I was at my bench that night when I remembered a batch of CDC feathers that my friend had given me. Before he gave them to me, he got out a glass of water and showed me what happened when a CDC feather was submerged. It trapped air, and did not become saturated. Amazing. I decided to use one of the CDC feathers as the wing post for the parachute. I tied up a bunch of flies that night, and had high hopes for the next day. Just as the two days before, the duns came and the fish rose, but today I wasn’t just a spectator to the action, I was catching fish! That day I stopped counting at about 15. Let’s just say I caught my fair share of trout with this fly. Mill Creek Hopper Fly: Andy Simon, photographs: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Size 10 dry fly hook Thread: Black 6/0 Body: Yellow 3mm foam, marked with black permanent marker Underwing: Green dear hair Overwing: Green raffia Legs: Yellow rubber legs, marked with black permanent marker Head: Yearling elk tied bullet style, eyes drawn with black permanent marker Note: This fly was named for one of my favorite home waters; a beautiful stream near Walla Walla called Mill Creek. While this fly looks complex, it is really fairly simple to tie. They key to this fly is getting the extended body right. To build the extended body, slip a piece of foam that is 3 inches long and 1/8 inch wide onto a needle so that the foam is impaled in the middle, with one and one half inches of foam on either side of the needle. Now, put the needle into your vice, and attach the thread. Wind the thread back to the foam and begin forming the body. First form one ball will the thread, then advance the tying thread and form two more. Once you have finished, whip finish the thread and pull the body off the needle. Now, take one of the foam sections, and stick the hook through it, pulling the foam all the way up to the bend of the hook. Then, attach your thread to the hook, and wrap it back to the foam. Now, form 2 more balls of foam, and cut the excess foam from the hook. Next, and perhaps most the important step in this fly, is to put a drop of Zap-a-Gap onto “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 182 the body, to hold it in place so it does not spin. After this is finished, dress the fly as you would any other hopper pattern. I use a bullet head and rubber legs for the fly, but feel free to use a clipped hair head, or anything else you want to try. Experimentation is a crucial step in developing good flies. Simon’s Spey Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Size 6-8 Mustad salmon fly hook Thread: 3/0 black uni-thread Tail: Black Saddle hackle fibers Rib: small silver tinsel Body, rear two/third: black uni-thread Body, front one/third: black rabbit fur (see tying note) Collar: Purple saddle hackle Tying note: Rabbit fur is spun into a dubbing loop using a special technique. Form a dubbing loop, then open the loop, and place in a zonker strip so that all the rabbit fur is inside the loop and pointing out one side. The skin portion of the zonker strip is left on the other side of the loop. Clip the skin of the strip, so that only the rabbit fur remains in the dubbing loop. Now simply spin the dubbing loop and wind around the hook shank. Note: This fly is perhaps one of my favorites to tie. It is beautifully simple, yet has a nice profile. Simon’s Spay bridges the gap between the old world spey style flies and modern techniques. Using a variation on the dubbing loop technique, a flowing hackle of rabbit fur is formed, giving the fly tons of action while in the water. Try this pattern out on you local anadromous species and you will be pleasantly surprised. S.L.F Damsel Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: size 12-scud model Thread: 8/0 grey uni-thread Weight: Lead wire Tail: Olive marabou, very sparse Rib: Small red ultra wire Body: Olive synthetic living fiber Eyes: Green melted mono Note: The S.F.L Damsel is a great pattern for still waters. Any time you see cruising trout, cast a few feet in front of it, and let the fly sink, and once it gets down to the fishes level, give it short fast strips until the fish passes or picks they fly up. This can be an amazing way to fish on July evenings when every fish in the lake is near the shore feeding on damsels. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 183 Swimming Scud Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: size 12-scud model, with a flattened shank Thread: Dark red 6/0 uni-thread Weight: lead wire, wrapped around entire shank Rib: Small red ultra wire Shellback: Plastic bag, cut to shape, with a coat of Softex over it Body: Olive synthetic living fiber Note: Contrary to popular belief, scuds do not have a curved position as they swim. The only time a scud takes up a curved position is when it’s dead, or tumbling down a rushing stream, trying to find a foothold. So, for this scud imitation I use a scud hook, flattened out so it doesn’t have any bend. Why you ask do you still use a scud hook, and not a normal nymph hook? Because the gap of a scud hook is larger, giving a better chance to hook this fish…simple as that. To fish this fly, cast it out in front of cruising fish, and let it sink until it gets down to their level. Now, begin to strip it in using brisk, 3-6 inch pulls. Often times, you will not feel a take with this pattern, so when you feel any change in the resistance on your line, strike. Many fish will take this fly and swim towards you, so the line will become easier to retrieve, if this happens, you must use a strip strike, to pull as much line in so you make contact with the fish. Tucannon Special Fly: Andy Simon, photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Mustad salmon fly hook, Size 2-8 Thread: Orange flat waxed nylon Eyes: Large bead chain eyes Weight: Lead wire wrapped around shank Tail: Pink marabou Rib: Small silver tinsel Body: Pink marabou wound around shank Note: I developed this pattern to catch summer and winter run steelhead on the Tucannon River. It is simple and easy to tie. This is an important thing for a steelhead fly, because if you want to catch steelhead, you must fish deep. If you must fish, then you will lose many flies. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 184 Andy's Cripple Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: TMC 100 # 18 Thread: black Benecchi 12/0 Rib: fine gold wire Abdomen: marabou Thorax: olive Ice dubbing Wing: cream elk hair Hackle: grizzly Note: crippled mayfly emerger from Andy Carlson's (Montana guide) article in Fly Tyer, Summer '03 issue Black Nose Dace Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: TMC 9395 # 10 4XL streamer hook Thread: black Benecchi 12/0 Tail: short tuft of red wool Rib: oval silver tinsel, medium Body: flat silver tinsel wing, bottom to top: white polar bear, black bear hair, brown buck tail Eyes (optional): Jungle cock Black Smut (adult midge) Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: TMC 100 # 22 Thread: black Gudebrod 10/0 Rib: fine gold wire Abdomen: dubbed black beaver Wing: dun cape feather, reverse-hackle down wing style Hackle: grizzly Blue Winged Olive Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: TMC 100 # 18 Thread: Benecchi 12/0 Tail: Coq de Leon, Prado fibers Body: quill - Ron McLean's porcupine Quill Body Wing: hen hackle tips Hackle: med dun “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 185 Fluttering Stonefly Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: TMC 2312 # 6 Thread: 6/0 orange Tail: moose body hair Rib: brown saddle hackle (size # 14 - 16) palmered with 5 or 6 turns Body: burnt-orange Antron yarn Underwing: elk rump - sparse Middlewing: Krystal Flash, root beer Overwing: moose body hair, tied in tips first with butts trimmed to length (this ensures wing stays flared and doesn't mat down, to imitate fluttering wings Head: moose body hair (from top wing), bullet style Legs: black rubber Note: from article in Flyfishing and Tying Journal by Todd Smith w/ Stonefly Angler's Shop in Boise Kimball's diptera emerger Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Partridge K1A # 24 (Marinaro midge hook) Thread: Gudebrod 10/0 Tail: teal flank feather fibers (tied long from thorax for body/shuck) Abdomen: none, bare hook shank Thorax: dubbed beaver Wingcase: light color poly yarn Note: Mike Kimball's diptera emerger which is Art Lee's favorite midge emerger pattern, Lore of Trout Fishing Neversink Skater Originator: Edward Ringwood Hewitt, Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: # 14 short shank (here TMC 100, for lack of a short shank hook) Thread: Benecchi 12/0 brown Body: two Coq de Leon pardo hackles (from Paco Soria), wrapped back to back “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 186 PT Cruiser Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: your favorite nymph hook (here # 16 TMC 200R) Thread: brown Benecchi 12/0 Tail: pheasant tail fibers Rib: copper wire Abdomen: wrapped pheasant tail fibers Wingcase: pheasant tail fibers Thorax: peacock herl Eyes: Maxima Chameleon mono, burned to form eyes Legs: partridge Legs: aftershaft feather, pheasant body or partridge, wrapped behind eyes Gills: aftershaft feather, pheasant body or partridge, wrapped behind eyes Note: Jeff Selser's pheasant tail nymph Snipe & Purple Softhackle Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: #16 light wire dry fly hook Thread: purple Pearsall's Gossamar silk thread Body: purple Pearsall's Gossamar silk thread Collar: snipe or starling Starling & Herl Softhackle Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: #16 light wire dry fly hook Thread: Gudebrod 10/0 Body: peacock herl Collar: starling “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 187 Willow Fly Fly: Russell Stanton, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: TMC 2312 # 6 or Orvis 8808 4 XL streamer hook # 6 Thread: Gudebrod "G" thread, fluorescent orange (surgical wire optional) Body: orange closed cell foam cut in strip and wrapped around shank Hackle: grizzly, palmered Wing: Elk rump hair Note: This bland looking fly deserves an explanation. It's Bill Campbell's version for the large stoneflies found on the headwaters of the Rio Grande and locally known as Willow Flies. Originally tied many years ago by Bill to try and get a fly that would hold up after more than just a few toothy browns, he used closed cell foam for the body and surgical wire instead of thread. After Bill, along with his fishing friends, Howard, and the ranch manager, Rod, all had their say on the fly's design and efficacy they put in Rod's boat and began the float toward the ranch. Howard was in the front of the boat that day (which surprises me since he's always insisted I take the front whenever we've fished) and both the fly and the fishing were holding up to expectations. After Howard had accounted for all of his fish that day on the same fly, he hooked into one last brown as they approached the take out spot at the ranch. Rod leaned forward and said to Howard, "Don't loose that fly." He didn't, and that last fish made 46 on the same fly. Mission accomplished, Bill.

Take material and poke over eye of the hook in the middle and tie in half on opposite side of hook with one turn, then fold back material on near side of hook and tie in. Hold bug yarn back over egg and make a couple more turns to secure material and finish. Trim yarn to back of egg. This pattern isn't done justice until you put it in the water. Tie one up and drop it in a cup of water and seeing is believing. Bug yarn becomes translucent and makes the egg look milky in the water. The best producing egg pattern I've tried. Simple Foam Beetle Fly: Cory Muench, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Orvis 1523; Sizes 16-22 Thread: Uni 8/0; Black Abdomen/Body: Black Foam Legs: Black Elk hair Wing: White Antron or Glo-bug Yarn Tying notes: Take foam and singe edges with lighter to give a softer look. Start thread and tie in foam length of hook in tight wraps giving the body a compressed, uniform shape. Work thread back to just behind hook eye and fold foam over making the back. Tie in neck with a couple turns and take 3-4 elk hair fibers and tie on back with figure eight. Elk hair will naturally fan out making legs, trim to length. Take wing material, really just used as an indicator post so you can see a black fly, and tie in. Finish fly and trim excess foam in front of hook eye to make head. Easy and effective beetle pattern that floats well. I have found success with small sizes, 18-20, on small streams. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 194 Sparkle Wing RS2 Fly: Cory Muench, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: TMC 101; Sizes 18-24 Thread: Griffith's 14/0; Gray Tail: Coastal deer or elk Abdomen: Beaver dubbing; Adams Gray Wing: Sparkle lace Thorax: Beaver dubbing; Adams Gray Tying notes: Variation on classic RS2 pattern. Start thread and tie in deer hair close to hook eye and wrap back to bend of hook for uniform body thickness. Trim excess and touch dub beaver dubbing and dub to half way point on shank. Tie in one side of sparkle lace and then fold over and tie in other side and trim. Can help to use a dubbing needle inside loop if needed to even it out. Touch dub again with beaver dubbing and cover wing tieins and take to eye of hook and finish.

It should make an excellent imitation of a dun and spinner of all mayfly species, with a few simple adjustments of thread and hair colors. Enjoy!

Considering the trout attracting power of bead head nymphs, I thought why not bring some flash to surface patterns. The bead emulates the light focused by the surface tension dimples created by the insect’s feet on the water surface. Plastic beads are light and can be supported by most standard floatation techniques. The beads can be purchased in a craft store, but don’t come counter drilled, so you may need to do this yourself. My experience has been that these bead head dry flies work on the dead drift or skated across the surface.

This style was named by my best fishing buddy, who upon first seeing the pattern correctly predicted that “it will sweep up all of the trout on the stream.” It is tied backwards in order to prevent the emerger part from interfering with hook set. The first versions had this problem. There are a couple of ways to accomplish this pattern. The first is to tie the emerger and add it to the hook before tying the nymph. The alternative is to tie in the emerger underbody as you tie the nymph, then complete the fly by turning the hook around in the vise to tie the emerger. Basic instructions: Turn the hook around backwards and tie the head at the start of the hook bend. Tie in the Emerger underbody, or completed emerger. Tie in two pieces of wing case material and dub the thorax. Take the two win case pieces around either side of the underbody/emerger, and tie down. Tie in tail and wire before dubbing backwards to the eye of the hook. Wrap gold wire back and tie off thread. Head cement this junction as well as the nymph head. The emerger part can be created by tying in the CDC and over wrapping the butts as you dub the body, tie in the hack tip and wrap 4-5 times, followed by tieng off the hackle and creating the head.

Natural or dyed grizzly hackle tips Head: Kreinik’s Fly Tyers Ribbon or colored or dyed epoxy Overcoat: Epoxy Note: In the late 1980’s when I was trying to design my first fly, the Epoxy Charlie, the Mini Puff was another fly that I was tying a lot of and had the possibility of becoming a very good epoxy adaptation. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 224 The Epoxy Mini Puff was developed almost side by side with the Epoxy Charlie. I used flash a bou initially for the head and then progressed to crystal flash and finally the Kreinik’s Fly tyers Ribbon. I used these materials and coated them with clear epoxy. As I became more involved in epoxy flies, I was shown how to dye epoxy, using Rit dye and 70% isopropyl alcohol and to tint the epoxy using enamel paint. This led to just tying on the bead chain eyes and applying either a tinted or dyed epoxy to give a solid head of epoxy that was either semi-transparent or opaque. NOTE: See article on “Working with Epoxies” for exactly how to do this. I never really promoted this fly but it was carried by Kaufmann’s Streamborn while I was tying for them. I never sent a sample to Umpqua so they did not put it under contract. Generally bead chain eyes are used but you can use bar bell eyes but the fly will sink like a rock. Numerous colors can be used. I generally tied this fly with a pink head (either the Fly Tyer’s Ribbon over coated with clear epoxy) or a tinted pink epoxy. The pink had either a pink or tan wing. The brown was either a gold head coated with clear epoxy or a tinted brown solid epoxy head. The white had a silver head or a colored white head. The tan had either a pearly head or a dyed tan solid epoxy head. Other colors may be used to include a chartreuse head with either a chartreuse or white wing, orange head with either a brown or tan wing, brown head with an orange wing and an all yellow. All of these colors can be tied with either a Kreinik’s Fly Tyer’s Ribbon head coated with clear epoxy or a head of solid epoxy tinted or colored. Either way, these are very effective flies. If you really want to get fancy, add some very fine pearl flask to either the dyed or colored epoxy. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 225 Branham's Mara-Minnow Originator and fly: Joe Branham, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann Hook: Saltwater, standard or long shank, 1 to 8 Thread: 6/0, White, Gray or to match back color Eyes: Bar bell painted yellow with black pupil or Krystal Eyes Tail: 2 pieces of palmered marabou 1 to 2 times hook shank length with 4 to 5 strands crystal flash on each side Wing: 2 pieces of palmered marabou Collar: Palmered natural or dyed grizzly saddle hackle Gills: 5 to 10 short pieces of red crystal flash Note: This pattern can be tied in numerous sizes and color combinations. By palmering the marabou, the marabou will give bulk and profile to the fly. I use short plumes for the tail and longer plumes for the wing.

Con las distintas variaciones que Jim ata de su mosca se puede pescar, y de hecho él lo hace, todo tipo de peces. Sus moscas han pescado truchas, además de steelhead, marrones anádromas, todos los salmones del Pacífico, salmón del Atlántico, por nombrar algunos de agua dulce. En agua salada han pescado bonefish, tarpones, barracudas, permit, jack crevalle, entre muchos otros. La técnica de atado de las moscas de Jim Teeny es sumamente simple. Se enrolla sobre la pata de un anzuelo para ninfas o moscas húmedas un mechón de fibras de la pluma de la cola de un faisán de collar, como queda dicho, y de color natural si se trata de una Teeny Nymph original. Se sujeta el mechón por su cabo al final de la pata del anzuelo, dejando unos tres milímetros del cabo como bajo cuerpo, enrollando el mechón luego hacia delante dejando las puntas como patas / barbas de la mosca (ver foto Teeny Nymph Original). Tomando como base este concepto, se pueden hacer diferentes modelos de moscas, como streamers, salmoneras, para steelhead, o ninfas de todo tipo. El cuerpo base explicado en el párrafo anterior, se puede 2 Si está conectado a Internet y hace click lo llevará a la página correspondiente. “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 231 repetir varias veces en un anzuelo de pata larga, por ejemplo, agregándole una cola antes y un ala después, del mismo color de los cuerpos o con colores combinados, brillantes u opacos para steelhead y marrones anádromas y colores más naturales para truchas residentes. Sería interesante probarlas también con nuestros dorados y taruchas. Si Jim pesca bien especies marinas de gran tamaño y combatividad no sería de extrañar el éxito que podría tener con nuestras especies autóctonas de agua dulce. Teeny Nymph original La Teeny Nymph original, arriba izquierda, y dos variantes de la misma mosca. Teeny Leech Otra variante, con doble cuerpo pero esta vez con el agregado de la cola. Teeny Egg Sucking Leech “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 232 La misma Leech que las anteriores pero con cabeza de hilo rojo simulando un huevo. Teeny Streamers A la Leech se le agrega un ala y algunos brillos y se produce un streamer sumamente efectivo. Teeny Flash Flies “Como comenzar a pescar con mosca y no desesperarse en el intento” Gerardo Herreros 233 Si a los streamers o leeches los atamos con colores llamativos tenemos como resultado unas excelentes y pescadoras moscas para steelhead.
