Default Church Window Dabbler
Been messing about with these feathers and find when wound at front of fly they give the cloaking effect of a dabbler, just what i think when i look at finished fly they do seem similar,, but what do you folks think??

Hook; size 10 kam b170
Tail; cock pheasant tail
Rib; oval gold wire
Body; fluorescent yellow dubbing
Body hackle; honey badger
Throat hackle; yellow cock or hen
Head hackle; cock pheasant church window

Could work at mayfly time but also fished as a dabbler i am thinking.

Geordie.
