This is yet another great Hex imitation from David Lucca

Here we have a classic spinner profile for a classic hatch, the Hexagenia Limbata. This pattern has an abdomen that extends out and upward from the thorax, just as it does on a natural. The back of the thorax is made with a piece of yellow foam that not only givies this pattern great buoyancy, but also a high profile. Last, we have the outboard tell-tale spinner wings that lay flat and thus suspended in the surface film. All in all, a simple yet very effective pattern for night flying this famous hatch.
