Fly tying for trout- a great pattern from the book “Trout Fishing,” by Joe Brooks. This video takes a new look at some old patterns, in this case the Letort Hopper dry fly shown in Trout Fishing. This book was an inspiration for me as a boy getting into fly fishing and fly tying for trout, and I thought it would be fun to tie some of these vintage patterns and maybe make some modern improvements on them. We have a lot of great modern flies now, but these older patterns still perform very well and might make the difference when the fish have seen all the new ones!

Materials-

Size #6- #10 4xl Dry Fly Hook
8/0 Yellow
Yellow Rabbit Dubbing (body)
