Unknown fly help

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 !

    I'm guessing McFly foam egg with Otter's Creek veil.

    I't probably a veiled glow bug of some configuration.

    "If, when you pull a fly out you
    dont hear drums and cant smell
    chicken blood in the air, put it back
    in the box, for if it is evil you seek,
    then it can only be conjured with the
    same.
