    Given the incipient lack of hackle, does anybody know how to tie this pattern?

    I’m think the deer or elk hair is tied along the side of the hook, or maybe spun and figure-eighted, and then the resulting legs are force into right angles.

    That’s my best guess.

    Thanks John.

    I own a copy of the Benchside Reference, but for some reason I never think to look there.

    Super Glue isn’t the answer.

    Actually, wasn’t really hard to tie up
