I was at Elk 2 weekends ago and was given a fly to try by a gentleman that I met. It was to imitate an egg in skein that is kinda falling apart. It was a tight bright colored egg with some type of cotton white fabric pulled off of it. Does anyone know what this fly is and what the recipe is ? I know this may be difficult but its hard to describe. Thanks though if you are able to help. Thanks !
