JAB's Stone Jig

Notes:

(1)  My Stone Jig was converted from a similar, simple stonefly pattern I tied some years ago.  You'll find despite the small size fish react very well to this pattern.   If your waters contain winter stones give this on a go!  This is a "go to" if you fish the Upper Sacramento River!
(2)  Colors can be changed out to match the predominant species in your area.

Materials:

Hook:  Hanak H450BL, Sizes 12 - 16
Bead:  Size appropriate tungsten, black
Thread:  UTC 70 black.  Finishing wraps at collar is UTC 70, fl. orange
Tail:  Goose biots, black
Body:  2-strands of DMC metallic embroidery thread (#E310) and 2-strands of Midge Flash black spun to form a tight cord.
Collar:  Awesome 'Possum dyed back
Legs/Horns:  Goose biots, black
