Here's another suggestion for future use. I finally conquered the tying methods for the serendipidity this weekend. I've been using this fly successfully on the Hous the past few years, but have bought them all so far. This is a great fly, and tying style since the segmentation comes for free without a rib. The key to my success is brushing and splitting the z-lon. My little LaFontaine comb does wonders with the combing. I use my hackle pliers to grab and spin the z-lon. I tied them on a 2457, size 18, in olive-brown z-lon. This fly is another great alternative to the WD-40.

For future reference: let me know if you want this fly. I can produce it as a webcam video in about 3 hours. It's also much easier than the Copper John!
