15:

on that note from Sage, Ill help ya out. I fish and tie BWO alot (not on the Clinch), so from one young fisherman to another here we go.

Hook- TMC 100 (size to match the hatch; 16 all around)
Thread- Uni 6/0 black
Tail- Dun hackle fibers (Wapsi makes some "mayfly tails" I use those (split) in dark dun on mine but classic style BWO will work just fine)
Body- Superfine BWO dubbing
Wings- Dun hackle tips
Hackle- Dun or Dark Dun

There you go; if you have any questions just ask!

Thanks!! Got a question though, which is the better choice of hackle, Dun or Dark Dun? And, where did you
pick up the BWO dubbing at?

15,

I use dark mostly. Reg dun is best in winter and on some streams all olives are lighter. I got that dubbing at my local flyshop, but if you check Cabelas they might have it...if not there are some fly-material companies that carry superfine.
