Tonight i have been mostly splitting tails and wings on Olive Duns :makefun

That fly in a much darker olive has been one of my most successful patterns for quite a few seasons.

Cracking flies as always guys.  How do you manage to tie s/hedgehogs without the dubbing creating a gap between each clump of deer hair Davy? My attempts always leave a small gap... doesn't harm the fishing of course but still very frustrating.

[River Chatter]

Hmmm, maybe that's the issue.  Like you I tend to tie my flies with less rather than more, but my sedgehogs and other caddis patterns are generally the exception, as the natural is usually a bit portly roudn the midrift (aren't we all).  I'll try it your way and see how it goes.

cracking wee flee

Got this from Davie McPhaill on U-Tube.
Can't believe I never thought of it myself! A hybrid of two of my most used flies, namely the DHE and the CDCE!
The technique of winding the dubbed thread through the wing, to keep it vertical, works a treat, too

[Malcolm]

Am I missing something - looks like a standard DHE to me?
