Hare Dub PTN tied by Don Short, New Zealand

Recipe Thread: Black Body: Pheasant tail Tail: Pheasant Tail Rib: Fine copper wire Dubbing: Hares fur Wing: Pheasant hen (optional)

Tying instructions: Tie in 3-6 Pheasant tail fibres for the tail. Use nice long ones. Tie in ribbing. Wind the non-pointed end of the PT fibres away from you to the point of the thorax. Cut off excess. Take the ribbing and wind towards you. Tie off at thorax. Tie in a new bunch of PT fibres to make the wing case. Dub the Hares fur to build the thorax. Fold over the PT fibres to make the wing case. Tie off the head. Keep the fly thin and sparse
