Snipe

Another favourite fly
the Snipe and Purple
Purple Pearsall's silk and an under covert feather.

This is a fly which I have used to great effect
on cold and stormy days, it certainly lives up to its reputation.


However, my fish prefer this one
Pritt's Dark Snipe
 
This is the same fly built from
Purple Pearsall's silk and an outer covert feather.
It is easier to tie too.
