Tasmanian Trout Flies - Black Beetle

In Tasmania there are great numbers of beetles throughout the whole season. The cockchafers, tea tree and soldier beetles, the black click beetle and many others. This is a good generic beetle, dry fly imitation. This fly could stand alongside the red tag.

Body: dark palmer cock hackle, tied in from the tail to head Some clipping, especially under and over the hackle, is required
Wing case: black rafia or dark or black duck wing is pulled over the whole lot from tail to head, before the last hackle is tied on
Hackle: dark cock hackle
