Tenkara Flies on Wednesdays Olive Dubbed Body Sakasa Kebari

Tenkara Flies on Wednesdays  Olive Dubbed Body Sakasa Kebari
Written by Jason

Happy 4th of July! Here's a simple pattern I've been using lately that I've been having a lot of success with.  I normally fish thread-bodied flies but am starting to use more and more flies with dubbing for the body.  The dubbing absorbs water and helps the fly sink.  But I also think it creates a slightly bulkier body that makes a more tempting meal to trout.  Watch the video all the way to the end to see footage of what it looks like underwater.

Recipe

Hook: Gamakatsu Amago #7.5, blue

Thread: Olive, 8/0

Loop Eye: #2 silk bead cord, white

Hackle: Brahma Hen, creme badger

Body: Olive dubbing
