Looks wonderful!! I'd almost hate to throw it to a fish!! (note: I said ALMOST)
Have you had success with that type wing material? I was hesitant to use it often as the fish DESTROYED it on hook up. How do you protect the material from disintegration?
Trouts don't live in ugly places.
A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.
Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.
That is a really nice caddis/sedge
How about a recipe?

Thanks guys and gals . To answer Betty's question. The wing material is homemade from kleenex and Flexament . A trick I picked up from David Martin and it is extremely durable. I 'm tying up a couple of dozen for my box in different sizes and colors. I'll snap some photos and post a step by step from them. It truely is a simple pattern and with the wings pre-cut from a paper pattern they really fly together.

What keeps it from sinking?

How about submitting it for a fly of the week if you're going to do a step by step. That way it won't dissappear but stay in the archives.
I can think of few acts more selfish than refusing a vaccination.
