Tonights tie was a refill of my articulated stonefly pattern, I've been fishing them pretty heavily all winter and the stock is getting low and pretty chewed up. Alot of guys will go to a wooly bugger but I prefer a nymph/streamer will a bit more style and when I'm going big and heavy this is my choice. The name comes right off the nail polish I use to coat the wingcase which has a pearlescent glitter suspended in it. Enjoy

Man those look good for the Lehigh. I have been seeing huge stonefly casings floating by me.
 
Nice ties Blue. Those look really buggy. What are you using for the "legs" or thorax area?
 
Natural emu, thanks, these are big water bugs.
 
Man, I need some of those in my box. I need to learn how to tie flies like a real man.
