Anolomink

Anolomink

The first pattern in the catalog. The Anolomink likely named for the town in Pennsylvania, where Broadhead Creek flows through. It is a possible imitation of the Black Quill, Leptophlebia cupida. 

The pattern is tied spent with black rooster hackle tip feathers. There are two examples of this fly in the Dette Card File. One has a floss body, the other dubbing. The rib can also be either one strand of twisted floss or heavy thread for smaller flies.
