    The fly I tied is a picket pin. It is similar to a crackle back in that it can be fished as a streamer, wet fly, or dressed and skated on the surface.

    The flies were tied on size 10, 4x long Daiichi streamer hooks.

    Tail – pheasant breast fibers
    body – holographic tinsel (original recipie calls for a bubbed body) and palmered brown saddle
    hackle
    wing – white rabbit (original calls for calf)
    thorax/head – black ostrich

    I used Uni 8/0 orange thread.
