Ive tied it before you can find it in "Flies for Steelhead" by Dick Stewart & Farrow Allen, I highly recomend this book.

its an egg pattern tied by pulling yarn or wool over the hook several times. The fly eggs up with a vailed look. I'll see if I can find you a pic.

Its not a bad fly. Although I dont tie it often anymore. You could fill a box in acouple hours
