Brown Ant
One for the summer fishing.
Hook: Partridge of Redditch Spider L3A/S #16
Thread: Semperfli Nano Silk 30D Brown
Abdomen: Semperfli 400D Floss and Red UTC 70D thread coated with Clear Cure Goo Hydro
Wing: Tiemco Aero Dry Wing Fine White
Thorax: Abdomen Floss
Hackle: Barred Ginger Paraloop wound around Body floss
The short shank and wider gape of the Spider hook I think is ideal for this fly and the oversize paraloop hackle should keep the chunky body in the film.
