One of my favorite flies and always was a great producer. Must be about the same age and fished many of the same rivers in the 60’s and 70’s. Deadly fly on the Henry’s Fork in late June. I was never a good enough at tying my own to do these and never thought the fly shops wouldn’t stock them. Think it’s time to give it a try. Thanks!

Yes, I think it’s sad that these flies have disappeared from the commercial market. These used to be readily available at the Bud Lillies fly shop in West Yellowstone, Montana, or Fran Johnson’s in Butte Montana, I even bought some at Dan Bailey’s in Livingston. And yes, I’m sure we’re about the same age. I hope you give it a try!!!

Interesting video. Isn't the key to Pott's flies the hair hackle weave? Your approach bypasses that. My guess is that Pott used the hackle weave as opposed to a hair collar for added durability. Thoughts?

Somewhere in my files I have the original way Potts did his weave. Both are fairly close. I have been doing it this way for 57 years and find it easier for me and I have had no issues with durability. Hair you use is the same. If you know how do the original weave it would make a great post!!!
