Wow. that would take some serious time that I can't find. I'd be tempted to just get creative with white pipe cleaner and markers!

Start w/ a yellow chenille, brown hackle feather, wht emu, wht saddle hackle. You'd get a close resemblance.

i'de throw the thing in the water first to see if the fish will eat it before wasting my time tying one. it's worth a try.
i've found trout aren't all that crazy about some caterpillars.

I think caterpillars are one of the most overlooked patterns on the water..if one doesn't eat them another one will. Especially the gypsy moths. I remember when we had that epidemic some time ago a little black foam body with a grizzly hackle wouldn't last long on the trout stream.

you throw that one in the water your hand and any other part of your body you touch is going to itch for a couple hours like you never itched before. Man I hate those things. Every late summer/fall a couple seem to fall out of the trees on the back of my neck while fishing.

Yeah before I'd take at look at the water before hand. What I'm saying is, sure theres atleast one we know of there... but is there enough to which Trout feed on them? You'd be surpised.
