A different carp bug tied as a bit of a change up, cause this is the time of year they really get smart! This is tied using the Duracell nymph pattern. It is certainly a variant, because the only original Duracell materials that used were the body (brown UV ice dub), rib (brassie red ultra wire) and collar (brown and black CDC). I just couldn’t bring myself to use Coq De Leon for the tail on a carp fly, it just doesn’t make any sense so I substituted with my “go-to” carp fly tailing material - pheasant marabou. Carp flies are about movement (that’s what makes ‘em eat it). No glitzy slotted tungsten bead either on a fancy jig hook. This size 6 2X heavy hook will ride hook point up with the medium black bead chain eyes which will put it down into the silt. Maybe I’ll take it for a swim at daybreak on Saturday morning.
