Found this fly called "Seller's SST".

 

Below is my variation of this fly - "Joes CCG Jiggy Baitfish"

Thanks guys!

 

 

Yes it can Rich, its CCG thick, you can add anything and will still give a "see thru" effect.

Have you tried yours out yet? I'm not sure if you are trying to get the same action as the original SST. The whole idea of Dave Seller's SST fly was to give the fly a side to side motion every time you strip in the line. Dave was able to do this by extending weight beyond the hook. While looking at the fly you have tied it does look very nice but it doesn't look like it will give you the same action as the original. The weight on yours needs to be extended beyond the hook.
