The Termite Fly
The late Warryn Germon really had termites worked out; well as far as the trout were concerned. He developed three very effective patterns that worked not only here in Australia but America as well.
- Hook: Mustad R50, size 18-16
- Body: Orange thread built ant shape with cream thread over to give the effect of translucency
- Wings: Cream Badger cock hackle tips taken from an old Indian cape.
