50 Shades Of Hare's Ear: #26

50 Shades Of Hare's Ear


#26  Polish Woven Nymph, Hare's Ear


Hook:  Fulling Mill Czech Nymph, sizes 10-16 (Size 12 Pictured)
Bead:  3.5MM gold tungsten
Weight:  Tungsten sheeting cut into a strip and wrapped around hook shank.  Thorax doubled (or lead wire).
Thread: UTC 70, fl. fire orange
Rib:  Hends 0.1MM gold
Body:  DMC embroidery thread, pearl effect #E746 and dark brown #938
Collar.Thorax:  Mixture of brown hare's ear, tan Antron yarn, brown deer hair and Sybai's Fine Flash. fiery brown.

Notes:

(1)  It is recommended to utilize UTC 140 to quicken the time it takes to form a taper.  The head is finished with 70-denier.
(2)  The number of floss strands is dictated by the hook style and size.  I am using 3-strands of pearl (bottom) (same color as tinsel) and 4-strands of dark brown.
(3)  Before the each knot is secure tightly a very small pinch of hare's ear is inserted into the loop then tightened.  I applied the hare's ear every other knot.
(4)  If you haven't an opportunity to fish woven nymphs you are missing out on some hot pattrns!
