Tying Notes: 
This pattern was designed to take advantage of the translucent nature of the
mylar tubing available today.  By placing the beadhead under the mylar it
opens up the body so that light can past through.  



 



Use Pantone
markers to match the minnow and stick on eyes to complete the fly.  In this
case the fly is marked as a small perch.



 



I
have had good success with this pattern, particularly when the trout are chasing
minnows in the shallows.
