Looks like a parachute fly based on Fox’s Poopah. Here’s a link to a step-by-step recipe for Fox’s Poopah. http://www.troutflies.com/tutorials/poopah/index.shtml

Should be easy to tie it as a parachute fly, using standard parachute techniques.

I highly recommend this pattern. The spotlight was a killer during the Mother’s Day hatch.
