Tip: Gold tinsel
Tail: Scarlet, yellow, insect green, barred Mandarin – married *
Hackle: Yellow tied palmer
Ribbing: Gold tinsel
Body: Scarlet floss
Wing: Scarlet, yellow, insect green, barred Mandarin – married **

* The tail recipe here is as originally written but Dr. Burke’s painting shows the tail in this order: scarlet, barred Mandarin, yellow, insect green.
** The dressing for the Cassard wing is correct as written and illustrated. Also, whole feather tips of wood duck could be used for the main wing on larger hook sizes with the married color sections along the sides.
