Pretty much this:

 

Differences in the version above are: ripple ice fiber in place of sparkle hair, smaller hook (size 6 instead of 2), medium Ice Chenille in place of Estaz (for the smaller fly), and a Fish Mask.

Here are two bugs i tied in the car the other day while fishing lake run rainbows out of lake taupo. I needed a really heavy fly and thought i'd try Jack fields two bead concept on the stonefly. The fly shown is a first prototype and i got several ideas for improvement: moving the legs up one step, coloring the top of the fly a darker olive to accentuate color difference, using a flymenfishingco. stonefly head instead of the double bead, and using wide latex strip to make wing buds.

The grub im pretty happy with, it's a super quick tie and it sinks like a rock
