Champs Special Streamer


Champs Special Streamer

Hook - Edgar Sealey & Sons 1762.B, #5

Thread - Black

Tail - Red floss

Body - Silver flat tinsel

Rib - Silver oval tinsel

Belly - A small bunch of white bucktail over 4-5 peacock herls

Underwing - A small bunch of yellow bucktail

Wing - 4 grizzly hackles

Originated by Frank Congdon

The pattern was designed by Mr. Frank Congdon from Middletown, Connecticut and was named
for his wife. The yellow bucktail in the underwing was sometimes substituted with 2 golden pheasant crests, so the bucktail should also be kept sparse. The pattern was given to the Weber Tackle Company.
