DAVE KENSINGER, I believe had this fly for his Profile picture, was beautiful and I had to ask about it!!!! He shared the recipe and some material with me, I am a fan!!!!!!! He asked me to do the STEP X STEP, I think he was chasing steelhead!!!!!!
http://bigbluegill.com/group/flytyingandspecificinstructionsonly/fo... This fly was real effective this morning!!!!

The bite for the morning seemed to be over as the sun was getting high and hot!!!! The lake with the weather right now is clear to 15'!!!!!! That is when I went to Jen's NAYBEE!!!!!! Simple and easy to tie and is real effective!!!!!!!!! I know she has put the recipe up but couldn't find it!!!!!!
Size 10 dry fly or wet nymph hook
bead chain eyes
Peacock herl body dubbing loop style http://bigbluegill.com/profiles/blogs/not-a-fly-but-a-style-peacock...
wings are pearl flashabou!!!!!!

Had a fun morning and used these 3 flies to catch what I did!!!
All 3 Flies are from the pages of BIGBLUEGILL, and are in my go to box!!!!!!!! Thanks to the QUALITY of the TYERS on this site, and their willingness to share I need more GOTO BOXES!!!!!!!! Thank You ALL!!!!!!!! Anyone else have a goto fly we would love to see it!!!!!!! Join here and share!!!!

Allen, it is a good fly!!!!!! Keep an eye on that discusion board, I am hoping for a new one or two flies to show up!!!!!!   Beginner or long time tyer's might have the ticket for the next fly!!!!! With us all being BLUEGILLER's if it works some where it might work for the rest of the COUNTRY!!!!!!!

Nice fish Greg!

I need to tie a few Greasy Monkeys.  Jen, have you posted the recipe for your Naybee?  I might want to take a stab at that as well.
