Material List: Hook - Daiichi 2220/Size 8

Eyes - Flat End Hour Glass Eyes/Size Medium (I have hand painted the ends to make them appear to be fish eyes [large puples] and 3D [two coats of epoxy to make the eye protrude])
Tail - Cream Colored Marabou (tyed long intentionally to give pattern more motion on the retrieve)
Body - Large Holographic Crystal Chenille (the body is trimmed after wrapping to give it a taper towards the back end)

You can use a colored Sharpie Marker to give the fly some variation in color from top to bottom.
