This looks like Belgian Geert Werbrouck's interpretation of a Danish coast classic: the Omoe Brush, but tied with some extras like both red and yellow hackles and a rib between the sections.

Creative GeWe Wet Flies

A wonderful little book with Belgian Geert Werbrouck's beautiful wet flies. Lots of pictures, lots of patterns, lots of tying and material tips.

The Omoe Brush

This fly is originally meant to be an imitation of a small clamworm like a small Nereis, but can be considered a generic pattern more than an exact imitation of these polychaetes. It takes its outset in the red body feathers of the Golden Pheasant.

Omø Børsten - The Omoe Brush

This is Allan's take on a classic Danish seatrout fly, designed by the late Ken Bonde Larsen. Allan’s fly as well as Ken’s original use the beautiful golden pheasant body hackles to great effect.
