It's because I'm psychic*


The Klinkhåmer sounds cool.... one of my most successful early season dries ever is a MB paraloop klinky. Great when the natural MB's and the LDO's start emerging.

The Deer Hair Dry version sounds good too - any chance of photos?

Yes boorod its a winged march brown spider, its tied useing woodcock primary feathers but you csn use other feathers like female PT tail feathers for the wings. Big mistake some people make when tying wings on spiders is to wax the thread as this tends to make the fibres on the wing come apart at the tie-in point. so when tying in the wing make sure you leave enough silk unwaxed or rather not wax the silk at all for the whole tie. I'll tie a few more versions of the MB spider on this thread and anyone's welcome to post theirs also, thanks everyone for the comments..
