Silver Sesame #12 5pcs Barbless Tenkara Soft Hackle

Finished flies for Tenkara and fly fishing.
Set of 5 size #12 flies.

These flies feature a grey body with sparse black soft hackle. Tied on size #12 short shank hooks with a shorter body, the overall body length is equivalent to a size #16.

This is an adaptation of the original Gin Goma (Silver Sesame) recipe.

The effectiveness of this fly is universal, similar to the Iron Blue Dun pattern in fly fishing.

The body is made from British mole fur. I've heard that the British mole used for fly fishing is a waterside mole called Nantoka Mole, but I haven't found any documentation to confirm this, so take it with a grain of salt.
I'm using British mole fur hoping it might be a substitute for water vole (which is related to moles) used in the Gin Goma pattern. However, the specific individual mole used is not identified, and I can't compare it as water vole is unavailable. In short, it's a personal satisfaction based on a hopeful assumption.
