I gotta try this pattern. Last year I tied up some woven detached abdomen dragon flies and caught city pond largemouth on them…..however they were hard to cast and twisted my leader up because I used bucktail for the wings. This bug looks way more efficient to cast. I gotta try to tie it and use some soon. Thanks for give a great tutorial again.
Great story on the history of this fly. I will be tying some for the Smallmouth in my local Kalamazoo River. Thanks Charlie.
interesting fly patttern that i could see being effective for stillwater trout. thanks for sharing this, CC.
Yet another great tying video by Charlie craven, such a cool looking pattern! I will have to tie one of these.
Looks kind of like the invasive emerald ash borer. Very cool

Cool bug! Thanks for sharing!
Patiently waiting for another fly
Where do you get foiled foam? That is a awesome material. And what an amazing fly!

Yah the stillwater trout would eat it up.
