Partridge And Green

Patridge And Green

An old standard soft hackle wet fly. Still very effective.

 

Hook:

Mustad 3906 or 3399 Size 8-14

Thread:

Olive

Tail:

None

Rib:

Small to Extra Small Oval Gold Tinsel

Body:

Green Uni-Streach

Hackle:

Grouse or Partridge

Head:

Thread Color

 

Instructions:

The only thing I can say about this fly is to make sure the hackle is soft and webby. You will only need 2 or maybe 3 turns of hackle. In this fly I actually used Grouse feathers. They are pretty well the same as partridge. For a variation, check out a picture of one I tied with oversize French Partridge for the Hackle.
