Had a go at one of these, tied on a kamasan B405 size 12, couldn't get any smaller jungle cock feathers and just out of B175's size 10's so it'll have to do for now.

Thanks for the comments fellas, I'm not an expert on these by any means so any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

How strange! I replenished my P.R. Dabblers only the other night Mark. Had some good sessions with it over the last couple of seasons. Seems to look, and fish best on a 12.

Erm... interesting that rob maybe I'll be tying a few more of them then.

Thanks shpeil I had seen this clip previously, dave ties it with the throat and wing technique whereas I just cloak the bronze mallard around the shank in one fell swoop so to speak which I find easier and personally thinks it's more suiting to a dabbler style fly.....but just my preference.
