yes it does i apologize ,i fish this fly slow two inch strips i count down(ie: how long does it take to drop one foot).
with gills a fall and a lite twitch will get em most times,the chinks take a lot more time.
the hook is a #4 Mustad #3250r,the body is pearl estaz,i use pearl and color it with permanent markers.
the eyes can be lead barbells ,beedchain,or mono,depending on the weight i am looking for ,i also use lead wire for deep fishing.
i tie the tail first,thean take the estaz body a little past half way up the hook ,tie the eyes back about 1/8 if an inch from the hook eye.
this allows the addition of flash tied in front of the eyes and behind the eyes (clouser style)and last the legs (if you tie the kegs tight behind the eyes they will flair,if you give them a little room behind the eyes they will flow forward of the hook eye.
an easy fly to tie and very productive .
