Fly In Stages - Blue Baron Variation 
I started this fly to be a small variation of the Blue Baron that I had tied earlier. I wanted to try a different color body. I had some Lagartun Oval Blue tinsel that I had acquired some years back and I used it for the rear half of the body. I have a tendency to be a little heavy handed when I mount my wings so will notice the CDC I used for veilings is at a little different angle than normal as it will be pushed down when I mount the wings.
As I got into the fly, I looked around and I had all these turkey feathers laying around that were not Grade A for sale to buyers but would work for me. The Golden Pheasant tippet underwing is a little longer than the Blue Baron underwings I had seen in pictures. The original pattern calls for Golden Pheasant tail feathers, but I chose Royal Palm turkey and utilized the black barring on the ends of the feathers. I also used Gadwall flank instead of Teal flank for a throat.

For the main wing, and I apologize for not having pictures of the goof-ups, I had originally married up a wing of blue and red dyed turkey. As I was tying it on, the red turkey kept exploding out of the wing in different locations so I steamed and remarried and had the same thing happen again. Resteamed and tried it again with no success. Finally, I resorted back to my bag of excess turkey feathers and chose Red Slate turkey feathers to mate with the blue turkey. Again I utilized the silver bars in these feathers and also put a single fiber of Kori between each layer of colored turkey. I think the Red Slate turkey really adds something special to the wing, almost giving it a silver gray look.
The fly is finished with Jungle Cock and Kingfisher. Lots of blue, but I am a blue freak so that?s what you get.
I chose this fly as it was something different for me. I had not attempted a fly with multiple underwings before and it certainly was a challenge. You will notice the veilings have been pushed down.
