Specifically tied to match the adult Western Green Drake (both dun and spinner life cycles), the Hair Wing Green Drake is an almost spot-on imitation and a proven killer during this stunning summer hatch! While similar in every aspect to the Hen Wing Green Drake in all but the wing material, this pattern might be even slightly more buoyant than its hen winged cousin.

Crushed it on Rock Creek
Both my son & I caught multiple fish on this fly on Rock Creek upper end above the bridge to Philipsburg. The wade fishing is wide open now that the river flow is down in the 600’s. The Drakes were out in force and of all the patterns I had at bae the Hair Wing Drake did the job !! My only complaint would be is the sun went down & the walk back to the truck !!
