Plus the hackle will make the ANT float better. Great ties. Those Scuds are great!
Sometimes it's okay to use longer hackle. However it goes from being a dry to a wet fly (softhackle) Fish it like a nymph and be spars with the hackle wraps. Like maybe one time around.
Olive thread, Gray, Black or Orange thread body, peacock thorax and a softhackle collar....great fly! Easy Tie.
