Michael Verduin's Catalpa Worm is probably the best of the bunch. I've got a video of him tying the fly that's a little over 30 minutes in length. I plan on donating a DVD of this to the Southern Council Conclave in October for the silent auction. I'll try to post a photo of the completed fly.

Here's an attempt of mine a few months ago to duplicate the fly Michael tied:



Also a note to the link above - when I saw him tying the fly, he used a size 8 salmon hook and not a straight shank hook.
