MONTANA, SLIM & SPARKLY
(Also as step-by-step instruction.)

Montana, Slim & Sparkly

Hook: Dai-Riki 270, #8-12
Thread: Gudebrod 8/0, black
Tail: Fox tail, black
Body: Antron yarn - roped, black
Wingcase: 2 strands of Antron yarn, black
Thorax: Ice Dub, hot orange
Hackle: Hen, black
 
Comment:
A good advice is to cement the head and a little bit of the wingcase next to it cement. A very large percent of the strands won't have any contact with the thread, but just be squeezed down by the ones on top of them. When the trout teeth  are taring in the wingcase, these strands will be start falling out... and when a few has been ripped out, it won't take long until the whole wingcase falls apart.
