Assuming it's a caddis of some sort. Tied here nominally as a Mother's Day; change color/size to suit your needs.

Scott,

Nice find! I could see this fly also working with Congo Hair/Poly Yarn instead of the deer hair, perhaps add a little better visibility to it that way too. I have some Klinkhammer hooks at home to play around with this pattern.

Thanks again for finding it.

Alberto

Interesting tie Scott. I don't recall seeing that style of hackle before and I like the "hot spot" on the video.

John,

Pretty much a basic Hacklestacker, just on the low end of the post; similar to the Headley Cripple among others.

Regards,
Scott
