Starling and Herl

Sizes
#12
Imitates
drowned adults · emerging caddis · general soft hackle

A classic North Country spider pattern consisting of nothing more than peacock herl and a starling hackle, yet devastatingly effective on trout and grayling. The iridescent peacock body and delicate starling fibers pulse with life in the current, imitating a wide range of drowned insects and emerging caddis.
