Tying Art Flick's Red Quill by John Kreft - RiverKeeper Flies

In this video, I tie Art Flick's Red Quill dry fly, a Catskill classic.
Art Flick was instrumental in popularizing this fly. The Red Quill imitates the Ephemerella Subvaria and uses a large stripped hackle from the Rhode Island Red rooster. Here, I've used hackle from Charlie Collins. An earlier version from Rube Cross utilized slate wings instead of wood duck fibers.
