Hot Creek Special
Hook - Mustad S80-3906 or S82-3906B, size 10-14
Thread - Black
Weight - Lead/lead free wire
Tail - Olive hackle fibers
Back - Mottled turkey wing feather
Body - Peacock herl reinforced with tying thread
Legs - Peacock herl
I'm starting to focus on the back bays more and one of the main food sources is ghost shrimp.
A easy tie but it's labor intensive stacking EP fibers for the main body and then trimming to shape. A fly that’s worth the labor though, because they mimic the food source, swim well, cast well and are very durable.
Edit: Update it’s alive!

This is an English fly that is not related to Bergman's fly of the same name.

My project for today was 1/2 doz each of the Kauffmann's Freight Train, Polar Shrimp and black Gordon patterns for one of the 5 new boxes. All done with that now I'll see what kind of trouble I can get in with a little freehand no recipe stuff LOL
Nice tying Rod
