The Abomination
By Chalk on May 25, 2008 in Fly Patterns, Saltwater
Hook: Mustad 34007 size 2
Thread: Olive Ultra Thread 140
Tail: Crystal Flash (Copper Root Beer), Enrico's EP Fibers (Olive Tan)
Body: Aunt Lydia's (Rug Yarn) (Tan Cream) or Enrico's EP Fibers (Olive Back Country)
Head: Medium Bead Chain (use heavier to cover the water column)
Weed Guard: 25 pound hard mason mono
This fly was created by Capt. Paul Fisicaro - this is my interpretation of his creation. The fly is something in the middle of the road between a kwan and toad.
Wrap hook shank with thread to just past the barb
Now tie in the Enrico's EP Fiber tail, length is twice the hook
Now bar the tail with a brown or green magic marker
Tie in flash twice the length of the hook
Take some Sally Hansen Hard as Nails and coat.
Now figure eight five pieces of yarn or Enrico's EP Fiber alternating colors
Tie in the dumb bell eye and super glue
Cut the yarn or Enrico's EP Fiber diagonally from the hook shank
Add a little Sally Hansen Hard as Nails to the top and bottom of fly to lock in the wraps
Tie in the weed guard
Whip finish and head cement.
