here’s a hopper that floats like no one’s biz…and uses foam instead of fur.
Very nice. Al and Gretchen Beatty have a similar fly in their book, IInnovative Flies and Techniques, called a Clod Hopper. Very high folater also.

Lots of others on that site.
it’s a shiney mylar material that I used under the deer hair wing…I like the bleached hair because it’s easier for me to see…
Chewydog…that’s it…great tutorial…I made a few minor variations.
That is an awsome little hopper!
