Bunny Hex

A local fly fishing friend brought this pattern on a trip last year and it was dynamite, he had picked-up the pattern at a local fly fishing club meeting (West Michigan Hacklers).  I have made a few changes from his original, peacock back instead of swiss straw, black eyes instead of brass and a better hook.  It is still dynamite and easy to tie and has become mandatory equipment in my boat for steelhead.

Best For… steelhead          Could Also Be Used For…  salmon and trout

***Materials listed in tying order
Hook… Gamakatsu, octopus (02408), size 4
Eyes… medium, black bead chain
Tail… flesh colored rabbit strip
Back… 4-5 strands of peacock herl
Body… cream colored sparkle yarn
Hackle… pheasant body
