What’s a spinner mayfly?

One of the easiest techniques for tying spent wings, this Hen Spinner mayfly dry fly can be found in Dick Stewart’s “Universal Fly Tying Guide.”

Hook: #10-16 dry fly
Thread: Any to match the body
Tail: Micro fibettes, or long, stiff fibers
Body: Dubbing to match the mayfly
Wing: Hen feather tips, light color
