Does anyone have the pattern for a fly called the Heebie Jeebie? It might even be spelled Hibi Jibi?

Thanks,
Mark

I experienced a good Heebie Jeebie hatch once. I was backpacking solo for a few days and the hatch came off right at sunset the first day. I spent all night waking up and shining the light around. ;)

No Heebie Jeebies for the rest of the trip though. :D

It never occured to me to try and tie up an imitation, it'd have to be pretty ugly. :unibrow:

Do they have a pattern for the river people too? Sometimes hearing them leads to Heebie Jeebies. :lol:

Sorry Mark, that name just struck my funny bone.

No apology necessary Ed. I had a hard time not making my own goof ball remark with it when I posted it. All fun.
A friend of mine is the one actually inquiring about the fly, saw someone catching fish and asked him what he was using. That is the response he got. I think the guy just didn't want to say what he was actually using.

It can also be tied as an emerger.

Good fly this time of year.

Charlie,

Thanks! I'm betting that's it. That didn't even cross my mind.
