Can anyone reccomend a link or pattern to tie up some Waterboatmen.

While removing my ice fishing shanty off the lake yesterday, I noticed
through some clear ice a Waterboatmen swimming about. I have heard
that you must be careful when you tie these not to tie something that
might resemble a Backswimmer, as these creatures sting, and trout
avoid them. This will be my first try using waterboatmen, as in the
past I have gone with leach patterns for spring ice out fishing.

Thanks in advance




There's a pattern in this months "Fly Tyer" magazine.
