    A nice emerger-style attractor for the pockety water of the Madison.

    With the Yellowstone winds quickly whipping our high-country snow out to Eastern Montana, I’ve been spending the blustery days at the vise. Every year I try to tie up a season’s worth of bugs over the course of a winter.

    This extended body baetis takes a nod from traditional patterns while making use of new synthetic materials. Every had a hard time keeping your deer-hair extended body bugs afloat after a few fish, this foam pattern solves that problem without looking like kids toy.

    Skating for silvers? Waking for steelies? This classic never looked better than this understated tie from Rodney Hobbs.

    I love the way the mix of the blue head hackle and the claret dubbing came together on this one. Fly by Peter McCallum.
