Skating Sedge

Here's a useful sedge imitation for late evenings. Fished dead drift, skated, dry or wet, it is useful pattern. I'll put a version on the River Fly Box Soon:




Hook: Partridge YK12ST #20
Thread: Sheer 14/0 grey
Abdomen: Hare's mask
Lower wing: CDC
Upper Wing: Raffine / Swiss straw
Thorax: Hare's mask

Congratulation for your flies!
I like very much CDC patterns.
I used to use to fish at my rivers at North Patagonia.
Thanks for yor pictures.
