hook - Dai Riki 320 #14 thread - Uni 8/0 camel tail - golden pheasant tippets body - Hareline chartreuse wing - calftail white hackle - brown Not sure how long the Lime Trude's been around but it's a pretty little fly and easy to tie; hardest part for me is evening the calftail wing in a stacker -ugh! mash barb, attach thread at 60% mark and wrap back to point above barb separate a clump of pheasant tippet fibers measure for length (hook shank) and tie in apply some dubbing (Hareline's a bit spikey for this fly but it's all I had in this color so I'll make do) dub up to 60% mark clean and stack a clump of calftail measure for length (hook shank) and tie in with firm wraps 'cause calftail likes to wander smooth wing tie-in to allow the hackle to lay properly prep a hackle feather tie in wrap hackle forward, half hitch x 2, SHHAN Regards, Scott
