Foam update to the standard tie. Might lose it to a tree or fish, but you won't have to tie on a new one in the dark because it stopped floating.

 

hook - Dai Riki 135 #6

thread/rib - UTC 140 hopper yellow

core/shuck - Congo Hair brown

tail - moose body hair

body - 1mm foam tan

body hackle - grizzly (undersize by 2)

front hackle - brown/grizzly mix

wing - deer hair

 

 

mash barb, start thread at mid-point
