Tying A Thunder & Lightning Dark - No Body Tube Fly

We are tying a thunder & lightning dark - no body tube fly variant of the classic Thunder & Lightning. This fly would be perfect with yellow or orange junction tube on your leader knot and hook for a free swinging hook set up. Or you can dress the liner tube with the traditional yellow butt, black body, gold or copper rib and orange body hackle. Video and music by Jay Bartlett Material list and tying step time codes below.
