#16 Gallagher Special

[use2wuz]

Wet fly hook, peacock ribbed with silver wire body, and grizzly soft hackle - grey thread on this one - another killer pattern!

Tied a few years ago and they just sit in my box unused season after season.

The Gallagher Special I learned to tie almost 50 years ago used brown hackle for the tail & hackle. And had a gold rib.

That sounds like a better pattern. Then just change the brown hackle to partridge or grouse...
