Notes:
While this flies name may seem to dictate color selection, don’t let that hold you back. Variations on this pattern exist under a variety of monikers with popular colors including more subdued tan and rust. While the wild colors above may do the trick some days, it doesn’t hurt to have a more natural version on hand. Just in case.
