Thorax Dubbing - Hareline Superfine Adams Grey // Semperfli Kapok Dry Fly Dubbing In this week’s episode of Tying Tuesdays, watch as Brady ties The Magic Fly! "Magic is it! I feel like whenever Fluoro Fibre is incorporated into a pattern it really does become magic! The Magic fly is simple but has all the right components. A light mayfly style tail with a thin ribbed body and a prominent Fluoro Fibre emerging wing. The clear white shimmer is a wonderous attractor for fish looking to grab bugs on their way up. This bug is an excellent dropper fly under just about any dry fly. It can also be a perfect point fly trailing off the back of your indicator rig. The Magic fly is a quick tie and can be changed to match BWO’s, PMD’s and an array of other emerging mayflies and midges. Simply flick your wand and put fish in your net."
