This is a straight forward futsu kebari that early tenkara adopter Rob L. ties. He does so in red or green because he always felt those were the “fishiest” body colors. The hackle color does not matter. White is a great starting point for this type of fly. A futsu kebari is best fished with manipulation techniques. Those sasoi are easiest to learn when you can see the fly and white helps that.
Ginger is another favorite color.
Cheers to Rob! I hope to see you on the water soon.
