Couple mods to Scott Sanchez Convertible - added foam for floatation (landau roof?) and, for smaller (#12-14) swapped Congo Hair for the calftail Trude/Wulff wing (less bulk at tie in; still like calftail for #10 and larger). Lot of the steps are similar to the Neversink Trude; front end's a bit different. Great little fly for pocket water; the Trude/Wulff combo wing is very visible. hook - Dai Riki 320 (#12) thread - Uni 6/0 camel tail - moose body body - peacock herl overbody - 2mm foam strip brown wing - Congo Hair white hackle - saddle brown/grizzly legs - round rubber brown (med) attach thread to hook at about the 60% mark attach a clump of moose body, little bit longer than hook gape and trim ends trim a strip of 2mm foam (hook gap width) to a point spread a little Crazy Glue on hook shank and tie in foam overbody tie in 6-8 strands of peacock herl and wrap forward with thread (re-enforces peacock) to 60% position wrap thread back to middle of peacock attach near leg far pull foam forward, tie in with 2 soft wraps (so as not to cut the foam) trim foam & provide smooth thread base for wing & hackle pull out a clump of Congo Hair tie in wing, let it hang over back & front pull legs back, wrap lead-free wire over them and rear wing to keep them out of the way divide front wing clump, figure 8 wrap and post wings attach hackle and wrap (3 behind and 3 in front), tie off, add a little Miss Hansen trim front wing a little higher than hackle tips pull rear wing back and trim even with tail and you're done Cutts love it in rusty orange; tan, green, yellow, black, even purple have been effective. Calftail wing versions Regards, Scott
