my pattern is a lot less glamorous, which is also why i think the grassie took it, because it just looked like a grass/moss fly.
But what i did is kind of a woolly bugger variation. I had a small olive marabou plume sticking out the back of a size 6 hook,
then tied in a hackle and wrapped it up to super light bead eyes and flattened the hackle on the top and bottom by pulling chenille
over from the back on the top and bottom so the hackle only stuck out the side.
I only managed to stick the one grassie, but had several more takes.
sorry if those descriptions were hard to understand
