    This document provides instructions for tying the Rogue Foam Stonefly fly pattern. The pattern uses orange foam for the body segmented into four pieces, root beer Krystal Flash for the underwing, choice of overwing materials like EP Fibers or poly yarn, elk or moose hair for the overwing, deer hair for the head, and black rubber or Life Flex for legs. The fly is tied by first securing the orange foam body pieces, then adding the underwing and overwings, before tying in the deer hair head that extends halfway down the body.

    Description

    1. Cut a strip of 3 mm orange foam about size of hook gape.


    2. Place needle in vise. Begin thread on needle and don’t cut tag end. Prepare 2
    segments and slide foam off needle.
    3. Begin thread on hook and create a base for foam to hold onto. Hold foam and tie onto
    hook at hook point. Tie securely and move thread forward with a couple of thread
    wraps. Continue this process as you create 4 segments on hook. Trim foam.
    4. Tie in a few strands of root beer Krystal Flash for the underbody. Fold butt ends back
    and tie down for thicker wing. Trim to length, about body length.
    5. Tie in choice of overwing 1.
    6. Cut and prepare a bunch of moose or elk hair. Stack and tie in overwing 2 securely with
    tips just past end of body. Pull a few butts up and wrap thread through them for
    security. Trim.
    7. Cut and prepare a large clump of deer hair. Stack and measure so it extends halfway
    down body. Reposition deer hair to extend forward and tie in directly behind hook eye.
    Allow deer hair to spin. Tie in securely, trim butts. Tie off black thread and change to
    florescent thread and position close to wing. Force deer hair back to create bullet head.
    Tie off securely.
    8. Add legs to each side. Tie off thread, trim, and add head cement over thread.

    Personal tying notes:

    Use EP Fibers – medium dun for overwing 1.


    Tie deer hair for head after securing foam body and before any underwings. This
    approach allows unencumbered access when tying in deer hair over hook eye. The
    other benefit to this approach is the butt ends of deer hair provide level platform for
    base of all wings.
