I've just had a very quick look in the 2 books by Richard Walker which I thought contained the pattern, but no luck in either of them.

There's another fly called "The Hoolet" which was around the same time as the M. The Hoolet, was a moth & there's a video by Davy Mc P. on Youtube.

The M. was, I think a similar dressing style but for a great red sedge.

Hi Danny....i know im an old rambler on here so this might look odd....anyhow i tye a big sedge my way on a size 8 long shank but remove tag and add fiery brown to body and palmer red game hackle or similar and change wing to deer hair and you will have a big red brute.



Sexy wings for show and rough as dogs nads catches the fish

There is an Irish based sedge article in the new T&S that's worth a look, lots of patterns.

What about a nice big Green Peter or Chocolate drop in relavant sizes?

I don't get the mags but will see can I track down a copy cheers .

What ever pattern it is , it has to be very good at staying on the surface when being pulled and twitched . As fishing in the dark I need to be happy that what I am using stays afloat ....
