I learned to tie this fly from my good friend Antonio Rodrigues. Antonio is a very talented, former competitive angler from Portugal. This CDC dry fly is very simple to tie. You can change the color of the quill and the size of the hook to represent just about any mayfly or midge! The Orange Fluoro Fibre adds a bright spot to make the fly easy to see on the water.
