So many ways to tie a bead head PTN. I like the peacock thorax with a soft hackle. Using a PTN I've caught fish where no one else in my group caught any. My wife was stripping one in and a hugh trout took it and ran down stream.

It sure is one of my favourites, tight lines!

Just started tying.. Your videos are fantastic. After about 5 tries, my results very close to the video. Having a little problem getting the dubbing correct. Mine always looks clumped. Any pointers? I'll keep trying! Thank you!!!
