Our next Fly Tying Forum will be June 30th.  We will be tying the Brooks Sprout.  This is a great emerger pattern.  It can be tied as a baetis, callibaetis, trico, PMD, etc.  I typically tie this in either black for a trico or olive for a baetis.  The choice is yours.  I will use both olive and black colors.

Brooks Sprout

Hook: Daiichi 1120 curved hook #18 or smaller or similar.  Go small! Tie a #20!

Shuck: black or brown Z-Lon or similar shuck material

Body: 70 denier thread

Wing Post:  Small white round foam

Hackle: black or dun. (Grizzle is fine, too)

Thorax: Black or olive dry fly dubbing (superfine)
