Udica Draper

Udica draper (Draper hook)

Ova udica je osmišljena da svojom formom imitira oblik tela nimfi. Nekoliko proizvođača ih je pravilo, a sada ih radi još firma Partridge u veličinama 0d #16 – #8, pa čak rade i udicu za izradu imitacija u morskom mušičarenju (poseban materijal i oblik). Retko se nađu!

Forma tela ove udice omogućava izradu nimfi koja daju siluetu koja odgovara nimfama jednodnevki koje žive pri dnu ili na dnu u brzim vodotocima (Heptagenidae, Ephemeridae, …)

Pored ovih nimfi iz reda jednodnevki, lepo se daju napraviti nimfe iz reda kamenjarki, ordonata (Dragon i Damsel fly), te nimfe koje se ređe koriste Adler fly i Dobson fly

Tekst koji govori o izradi jedne takve nimfe na Draper udici (izradio Johnno):

„Draper’s flat bodied hook

Was rummaging around in one of my hook storage boxes today and came across a packet of these:

I’d forgotten all about them. Keith Draper of Taupo developed them as he wanted to imitate a flat nymph. The first ones were a bit problematic as there was a weakness where the hook wire was soldered together and they could break or bend at that point. Then Partridge in the UK developed them up and they were much better.

I have not seen them for sale for years but were reasonably common back in the late ’70s – mid ’80s

They make for a nice shaped nymph. Of course a bead will not fit on them, but you could wrap thinner lead wire around them or put appropriately shaped lead foil in the middle for weight.
