Steely, try using it for bugger bodies. Put it in your dubbing twister and make a yarn with it. Gotta pick the rubber legs out after wrapping the hackle. It's good stuff, I use it alot. Very effective on stonefly nymphs. I have experimented alot with it. Using it for thoraxs on things such as hare's ears and pheasant tails, etc. By the way nice fly!
