Here we go with a Zacattack 1) Tie in a tail of tinsel of your choice 2) Tie in another tail of Icelandic sheep or llama. Make sure to compress the hair all the way around the hook shank. 3) After securing the tail tie in your choice of crystal chenille, before wrapping coat the thread with head cement and wrap the chenille while it is still wet and then tie off. 4) Tie in some more Icelandic sheep/llama making sure you cover the bottom and top of the hook shank. 4) Tie in another pc. of chenille and repeat the previous step. 5) Tie in some more Icelandic sheep/llama for the front 6) Take a small steel battery brush and brush the fly out to blend the colors 7) Place a bead of goop around the head of the fly, wet your finger to smooth out and to ensure the goop covers all the thread. 8) Place a dollup of goop on the eyes you have choosen and press into place. The goop will squeeze out from the eye so more wet finger smoothing has to be done. Let dry and the fly is finished. You can tie this fly in any combination and it works awsome. Best colors are 1) the one pictured 2) Chartreuse and green, and blue and white. Now go catch some GATORS!!!

Fooling around with this pattern and decided to use Diamond Dub Holographic for the body instead of crystal chenille. I think it gives it a more realistic body. Even a smaller size in white

Fantastic pattern Stu! The silver holographic dubbing gives it that extra punch! Think this will be a killer pattern for Pike, Walleye, Bass, and Browns!!! I'll be sure to take pictures of your flies hanging outta fish's mouths! Nick
