Classic Wet Fly
Tied By Christian Andrews
Hook: #8
Thread: rusty brown
Body Parts: tag, body, wings, hackle

The ingredients here are a guess from the illustration of the Caperer in Favorite Flies and Their Histories (1892) by Mary Orvis Marbury.
The wing could also be tied with duck, turkey, or goose quill.
