Anne's Stickfly

Anne's Stickfly

Hook - Mustad 94840, Size10-12 

Thread - Black

Underbody - Yellow dubbing, natural or synthetic

Overbody - Pale deer hair, which also forms the tail and the head 

Ribbing - Crisscrossed thread

Historical Note: This original pattern is a creation of Ann Schweigert who opened her first fly shop in Luzerne, Michigan along with her husband Jack. Ann & Jack remained in business until Jack’s death in 1985. This pattern was developed in the late 1930’s. This effective pattern is so simple it’s almost primitive. 

Tied in the style of a Cooper Bug, Devil Bug, Tom Thumb etc
