The Silver & Black is a simple and elegant wet fly. It works very well in "off" colored water as the black will stand out more. It is a nice pattern to get your feet wet in the realm of wet flies. Very simple to tie and a great one to practice your skills on. Change up the color of the throat and the wing and I am certain you will have some great flies for many fishing conditions. - Enjoy
