Did you tie it as midge? I like it.

can’t remember if it is a 14 or 16 hook.

I see the value i this. I’ve tried various straws but have never been satisfied. The opening for the cable tie is the gamechanger. Will definitely try this out. Thank you for sharing with us.

That’s a nice looking tie you’ve got there with the bead head, oval tinsel rib, and dark yarn. I’ve found patterns like this work really well when you want something simple but effective, especially for imitating midges or small nymphs. Having a good mix of flies in your box is just as important as the rest of your fishing equipment, since sometimes it’s the smallest detail that makes fish take interest. I’d say this one looks like it will definitely catch some attention in the water.
