I figured I would mix it up a bit today, and go back in time a few years. Nowadays our boxes are filled with stimulators, copper johns, and many more synthetic creations. Back in the day, the Rio Grande King Special was a staple amongst fly fishermen, and has recently been "updated" by local experts like Charlie Craven. The pattern pictured here is the original version, tied in black. Enjoy!
