Target Species: Freshwater Bass, Panfish, Trout,
Recommended Region: Northeast US,
Imitation: General Baitfish,
Material List*:
Hook: #2-10 3XL- 2XH, Orvis #???? size 6, used here.
Thread: black 6/0
Body & Rib: Silver 2 stranded metallic floss, tied in at the eye and wound flat back to the bend then twist the 2 strands into 1 tight strand and wind back to the eye.

*Materials with links give you direct access to that product at the J. Stockard store.
Tying Instructions: This is an experiment that I think will be very productive. Unfortunately the white bucktail doesn't show up well in the picture.
