Lefty's Wossname

This lure was developed from a half-remembered pattern in Lefty Kreh's book Fly fishing in salt water. When I finally recovered my copy after it had been lent around a large circle of angling chums I discovered that:

1. It's called the Seaducer.
2. It was developed by Chico Fernandez.
3. He ties it even fuzzier than I do.

By that time we'd been using the pattern successfully for over a year and the name has stuck.

Tying:

Hook:

Sizes 4 and 2 are most useful but it can be any size, this works best without lead.

Tail:

Long neck or saddle hackles colour to suit, we use white at night other colours by day.

Flank:

A contrasting badger or grizzle hackle can be used to suggest the body.

Hackle:

Several cock hackles extending forward from about level with the hook point, tied over wet varnish, colour to suit.
