Who knew? A Hornberg dry? I sure didn't until Tim Flager tied it and produced this fine video. Like the well-known wet, its a fairly straightforward pattern made from common materials. It looks great, and as Tim shows here, it catches fish.
RECIPE
Hook: Dai Riki #310 size 18
Thread: 6/0 Olive Danville
Body:Flat silver tinsel
Underwing: Yellow saddle hackle fibers
Overwing: Mallard flank fibers
Hackle: Mixed grizzly and brown
Tie some up, and sharpen your hooks!

Great little variation. I fish the Hornberg often. I'll try this for sure.
Nice Matt ... I fish Hberg both wet and dry in Adirondacks quite a bit...murder on wild Brookies!
Sweet....I would eat it....
Neat looking little pattern, along the lines of a midge cluster. Great blog too. Thanks for posting the tying videos.
