Give these videos a gander. http://www.flyfisherman.com/ftb/bobclouser/ Straight from the horse's mouth. IMO it is not a hard fly to tie, and rejects(I have had alot of them) will still catch fish. That being said, there are some specific things that Bob shows in these videos that really will make a difference. Oh, by the way, you gotta have some flash. Even a little Christmas tinsel will do the job.
