Another pattern from Phishingincident for early season salmon.
If you tie the dumbbell eyes on the top the pattern will ride hook point up. Your choice.
Olive marabou.
Tie the flash in so the tails match up with the marabou. Fold the flash back for later palmering.
One olive schlappen feather tied in by the tip.
Palmer flash forward past the eyes and leave long.
Palmer the schlappen feather forward so the soft marabou like fibers wrap forward of the dumbbell eyes.
Fold the flash back make a head and whip finish. Be aware if you put your eyes on the top of the hook shank you want to fold the flash over on the hook point side of the shank because that will be the top.
