Another pattern requested by a fellow NVATU member, the Mopster has proved fun to tie. Fly tyers cannot help but try to make flies out of anything they can put their hands on! In this case, a strand from a microfiber mop forms the distinctive tail. Several pairs of rubber legs give the fly its liveliness. Estaz chenille adds contrast and flash to the body. A black bead helps the Mopster sink to where the fish are.

Hook size: Scud size 10.
