Paso 1
Take a CDC hackle.
Paso 2
Tie a CDC hackle on a grub hook, as if I were tying the Mirage.
Paso 3
At the extremities of the body, I put a loop of steel wire or nylon, which allows me to create another loop with the hackle.
Paso 4
After tying the CDC loop on the hook, I insert the tails inside it. Tails can be natural, for example, moose hairs, fibers of pheasant or tails of nylon. I insert the fibers in the CDC loop crossing them; that tie on one side of the loop comes out the other end and vice versa. In doing so, the tails remain apart.
Paso 5
Keeping in slight tension the CDC loop, with the help of the loop of metal wire, I wrap around it the tying thread, coils wide.
Paso 6
When I reach the end of the extended body, I stop.
Paso 7
Turning back, crossing the coils of tying thread with those previously wrapped.
Paso 8
Cut the tip of hackle.
Paso 9
From now on I proceed as if I were tying the Mirage: holding the hackle for the base, I do converge fibers to get wings.
Paso 10
Cut the excess of the hackle.
Paso 11
Tie the head of the fly.
Paso 12
Fly finished
