Weekly Meeting Schedule

Tonight Denton will tie one of his favorite dry flies, the Klinkhammer.  It's a versatile Mayfly pattern that can be tied as a subimago (emerging adult) or imago (mature adult/spinner).

We'll also go over various ways to tie posts to make tying parachute dry flies easier.

Hook:  Fasna F120 Klinkhammer hook, size 12

Abdomen:  UNI-Floss brown

Thorax:  Peacock herl

Post:   Polypropylene yarn (white or color of your choice for visibility)

The original rainbow warrior is one of Joe's go-to flies in Iowa and Wisconsin, where he typically finds success in the slower pools.  The rainbow warrior is a quick tie and he'll typically have a dozen in his fly box.  Joe has had a lot of success with the original pattern and is looking forward to trying this pink beaded alternate.
