Underbody: dark foam tied to hook
over body: peacock herl
Legs: very fine black broom bristles bent to shape with a hot bodkin
eyes: very small plastic beads wrapped in organza to give them that sparkle look
wings: clear raffine cut to shape
'here are the materials I used

Thanks for the recipe... sounds like fun to tie…. I think yours are good looking, and should work well on trout…..I am going to try my luck and tie some and hope mine will look as good as yours does …. thanks again.
