Hosmer Horror


Hosmer Horror 

Atlantic Salmon

Hook - Single salmon

Tail - Orange hackle 

Body - Peacock herl over an underbody of tapered olive floss or yarn

Wing - White monga ringtail tied low over the body or substitute

Hackle - Yellow and orange tied on as a collar mixed and tied back 

Monga ringtails are rare in Connecticut 😁 so I substituted white bucktail
