I saw a YouTube video about this fly and gave it a try. They called it the better bugger I think?Pretty shameful compared to the beautiful work in this thread.

I was ask for some elk hair caddis.
I used some elk hair as a tail. Is that ok?
Red thread mainly for visibility (hopefully).
Roaster neck feather for hackle.
Then finish of with another stack of elk hair.
I think it is calf hair.

original elk hair caddis pattern did not have a tail but its okay if you want it

almost a stimulator

Stewart's Hawk

Originated by Austin Hogan

Hook - Streamer 4xl
Thread - Black
Tail - White bucktail
Body - Silver embossed tinsel
Wing - Small bunch of blue bucktail, reaching to the end of the tail. Over this, rather wide slips of any soft, streaked/mottle feather to imitate hawk (used on original)
Cheeks - Jungle ****

Stuart's Hawk is an Austin Hogan pattern. He created it for his friend and fellow angler Clarance "Cak" Stewart. It is responsible for taking a number of small mouth bass in the Northeastern United States and no doubt many trout have been fooled into grabbing hold. The wing was selected for its softness and for the motion imparted as it is stripped through the water, pulsing with a strip and pause. The original pattern called for hawk, but in all cases, it is now illegal to possess raptor feathers. Turkey tail, peacock wing or any mottled feather would work in place of the hawk.
