Teal and Black - Clyde Style

[Steven Kidd]

Far from perfect this one, I am waiting on some finer silver wire, but it'll do for a fishing fly, , I'm not precious, the trout won't mind

How are you tying the wing in Steven?

[Steven Kidd]

Hi Peter,

I do exactly like Davies Youtube video, cut out the tip of a single teal feather, left with a 'V' shape and tie it on top, then two wraps and then pull the feather through until the length looks about right and tie in fully.

I've just finished a few Teal and Red also, will post a wee photo soon.

Steven.
