| Rib: | 5 turns of medium flat silver tinsel,

| Note: | A modern Spey version of the popular Green Butt Skunk.
I have seen a fly similar to this that used white goose
shoulder for the wing, but it didn't have that "whoosh"
look of the original hairwing green butt skunk, so I
tied it as a rather unconventional hairwing Spey fly.
