The CDC Dry Fly – Brown is a must-have for any angler’s fly box. In this step-by-step guide, we’ll show you how to tie this effective fly using the following materials:
Hook: Barbless Hook #9 – #17
Thread: 10/0 black
Body: Uni yarn salmon
Thorax: Pheasant tail ice dubbing
Wing: CDC feather
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Begin by securing your hook in the vise and wrapping a base layer of black 10/0 thread.
Tie in the uni yarn in salmon and wrap it evenly to form the body. Secure it with the thread.
Add the pheasant tail ice dubbing to create a dense thorax just behind the hook eye.
Prepare a CDC feather and tie it in as a wing, ensuring it sits upright for optimal floatation.
Finish the fly with a neat whip finish and a drop of head cement for durability.
