Mike Mouradian’s Prime Mouradian (variant)
Tied By Joe Glessner
Hook: Size 12 Standard Dry Fly hook
Thread: 6/0 Semperfli Classic Waxed Thread (Flouro Green, but any is fine)
Materials-
rib: Wapsi Copper Wire, Brassie Size, Red (optional)
body: Peacock herl (3 strands here)
wing: Nature’s Spirit Spinning Deer Hair (natural)
legs: Silicone Legs, Chartreuse
Notes:
This is traditionally tied without a wire rib, but I have a compulsion to add them to peacock herl bodies. It still floats.
Mike designed this as a guide pattern and you can whip them out really quick if you find you’re losing a lot of them or want a bunch in different colors. Great pattern to throw when you’re not sure what is getting bites.
