Hook: Partridge of Redditch Ideal Standard Dry SUD2 #12.
Thread: Semperfli Nano Silk 12/0 Brown.
Wing: Natural CDC.
Body: Orange/Amber mixed dubbing.
Thorax/Legs: Caribou.

What I’m aiming for here is a good footprint on the water and a fly thats hard to sink. CDC tied in like a Sedgehog keeps the profile narrow and the scrunched up Caribou holds its shape well and looks quite “leggy”.
Been working well so far.
