A curious fly. Do you know the history? Do you fish the pattern? Or fan wings at all?
It's so goid to see a dry from you. Thanks.

I regularly fish fan wings for smallmouths. A Heavier tippet (usually 2x) is necessary in order to keep the tippet from twisting. The smallies really eat up a blue damsel fan wing I tie.

I tie 'em on size 10 Mustad 94840; and yes, they are usually pretty wee smallies! Good fun on a cane 5 weight just the same!

No smallies here, but loads of wild trout! As far as I can tell they all eat dries. Haha.

That's one gorgeous fanwing, Alec! I'd seen it tied as a wet, but never as a dry!
