Biblioteca Paso a Paso The Slinky Damsel

The Slinky Damsel

A sleek damselfly pattern for stillwater, where the exoskeleton is emphasised. So many of our patterns are dubbed, and therefore woolly of fluffy. This pattern exemplifies the sleekness of the natural, enters the water and sinks quickly without weight, and is simple to tie. I have been using it for close on ten years now, and it has accounted for some good fish in our stillwaters
