floating nymph

hook - dry fly
thread - your choice
tail - hackle fibers
ribbing - fine copper wire
body - superfine dubbing
wingcase - foam
thorax - spikey dubbing

tie these in your favorite colors, favorite dubbing etc

dubbing ball wingcase method is acceptable. foam is easier ;)

i am willing to test it for you
That is one nice looking fly and a great idea

Floating nymphs seem to be a badly underrepresented category of flies in the fly tyng world. Too bad, because they are highly effective in many circumstances, as I am sure this pattern will be.
