Tying The Orange Fish Hawk - Dressed Irons

Hook: Mustad 3906, 3906b or 3399, #10 - #16
Thread: Uni-Thread 8/0, White & Black
Tag/Rib: Danville Gold Mylar Tinsel, #16/18
Body: Danville 4-Strand Rayon, Orange
Hackle: Ginger Badger Hen

The Orange Fish Hawk is another soft hackle that is very productive and has been around for many years. I chose this fly because it has certain components that are more common to wet flies than soft hackles. I have mentioned in other videos and posts that many flies are created from pieces and part from other flies. In a way, that is part of the fun of learning so many different patterns and learning the different "types" of flies. Anyway, the Orange Fish Hawk is a fun little soft hackle that works well on trout streams as well as in warmwater streams. - Enjoy
