Description
This is a complete tying kit with all the materials required to tie 24 flies in this Red Tag pattern. Plus, there will be lots left over, so additional hooks can be added at a later date to get even more flies from these materials.
The Red Tag is an absolute classic dry fly. A cunning beetle imitation, it works when terrestrials are on the move, but it also delivers results when there isnt any hatch to actually match. It can be fished as a general searching pattern on the surface until waterlogged, then dragged through a swing subsurface for fish that arent quite looking up. There are many variations on this pattern, including wet and dry versions. This is a dry fly variation of the Red Tag, tied the the way I like them to fish with myself. Although, you could very easily modify this with a different hackle and hook to tie a wet version.
Included in this pack are the following :
Ahrex FW500 Dry Fly Hooks #14
Peacock Hurl Small Bundle
UTC 140 Thread Dark Brown
Tag Yarn Red
Dry Saddle Hackle Pack

Due to supply shortages, we are sometimes unable to make up kits with the exact products as shown in the image. If specific materials are unavailable for these kits, we will replace them with an appropriate alternative to complete the kit. This should not affect the end result in the completed fly.
