I love the look of that fly. That and the images that LadyFisher had in her article made me think back to the days when I would turn over rocks in the riffles and gather me a bunch of 'rock rollers' for bait. I would remove them from their cases and float them thru the pools and get my fill rather quickly as a kid fishing in Utah. I even went so far as to tie up some latex 'bugs' years ago, since I still didn't know what they were, and catching a good number of finned friends on them. the color and sheen was a good match for the immature caddis pulled from its case. I just may have to go back to tying and trying some of those again.
