A really old traditional wet fly. The grey hackle peacock tied on a size 12 hook. Never a bad idea to tie one of these onto your wet fly rig.

Just add a little deer hair wing on top of this and I think you’d have a killer pattern. When it catches fish, name it and take credit first being its originator. 😃
