Oct 13, 2009 - Hey I saw another version of the prince where the guy added a hen hackle in behing the two white biots. Worth doing?

Nov 30, 2009 - It's easier that way. I prefer to do them both at once, normally I don't eff up that much.

870in410 Says:

Nov 30, 2009 - Not worth it to me. I used to add it, as that's the classic version. But I find it fishes just as well without it.

andrewh4 Says:

I tie them most of the time with no hackle, but if i do hackle, i partridge or pheasant to hackle it. Great pattern. a must have in the ol' fly box.

Mar 19, 2010 - can someone tell me if u use a fly rod or a spinner rod for these kinds of flies

ahunted1 Says:

Mar 20, 2010 - Too light for a spinning rod, very popular fly pattern for fly fisherman. Though with a split shot, this could probably be a killer pattern for panfish on a spinning rod. Ive used many fly fishing flies for reg fishing, and especially ice fishing.

aspca226 Says:

Nov 5, 2010 - Fly rod

aspca226 Says:

Nov 5, 2010 - I noticed that alot of people do that to. i have only tied it without the hackle, but i dont know if i would benefit if i used the hackle.
