Earlier today I stumbled across an SBS by SBPatt for a great looking fly called the Michigan Stimi (Ansel Adams variation). There were two versions a white and a black.  I didn't really have the materials listed for either fly so I made a few substitutions on the black version. The result is below.

I saw a video on thi pattern on In the Riffle not too long before it went from being a website to being a Youtube channel. I have not been able to find it since and I can't remember (unfortunately) what it is called.

The first picture is size 10, the second is size 14.
