Absolutely Albino. I get like three different subscriptions that always have interesting patterns.
In Fly Fisherman issue this month is a KILLER Stonefly/softhackle pattern,. I am tying a bunch.
Match, there are the Gartside style that s a leech/streamer, but down size. Take a Tiemco 200R hook in like 12 to 14. Put thread body, but stop like straight up from the barb (like around half the hook). Olive thread is great, but Orange, Black, Grey. Then Partridge, hen, CDL feather and wrap two or three times.

I used an Olive one at "The Lake"[
] and they hammered it. Maybe when wet it looks like a scud.
Easy as heck to tie.
