Fly Tying: Mini BDL

The Dali Lama has been one of my favorite streamers. I've used it for steelhead, trout and bass with great results. My variation here, the Mini BDL, uses a little red mixed in and in a smaller size.

Swing it with a spey rod or use a streamer rod and strip it in.

The olive and white version has worked the best but I've had good results on other color combinations.

Have fun. Keith
