Copper John as a dry fly?

No, that wouldn’t work. But this is a variation I spun up to use this spring on the Skwala waters.

Curtis,
I watched your video. You are a very good tier.

An excellent video too.

I like the fly, but don’t understand the post…I’m a little slow like that. this is NOT meant to float, right?

No, it isn’t.

Curtis, I explored your site a little and liked the Gut Bomb Bloodworm…the translucency… I’ve been trying for a damsel fly nymph with an articulated translucent body and bet you could come up with a good one.
Here’s an attempt of mine that I’m not real pleased with.

That’s actually really cool. I love the idea on the tail. I bet it could rustle up some fish. Speaking of the gut bomb, we actually tied and fished a damsel version of it. Never did a post or tutorial though. This is the only shot I have of it, but it tore up the fish.
