With my casting skills I'd probably stone myself to death!😄

I commend you just for trying.

What does one use for glue on this one?

Lol anything that will make the river bottom stick to the fly. I used uv resin, super glue, might try some sort of paste next.

That bottom one is spot on, huh? And it looks easy peasy, to boot

Here is something I tied, maybe a decade ago. The idea came form a some website, maybe flyanglersonline? The "gravel" is something model railroaders use. It can be purchased at a store that caters to that hobby. I think I tried both Dave's Flexament and 5 minute epoxy. I don't remember which worked better. Basically you coat the body with adhesive, roll it in the "gravel", then form it with your fingers and cover any bare spots. I didn't fish this very much, opting for patterns with more traditional tying materials.
