Default Fly Material Help Needed - 2nd attempt with pic link

Hi All,

I am trying to find stuff to reproduce a fly for my father. The fly in the
upper photo has a red plastic body between the tube/hair and the beads. Does
anyone know where I can find something like that? That fly is something like
35 years old. My dad trolls with thede behind a dodger and down-rigger for
salmon and lake trout in Lake Michigan.

I ordered a tube tying adapter for my vise this weekend to help me with the
tube part with the hair. I can find everything else, just no luck so far on
the red body. I also imagine polar bear hair which is what these were
originally tied with is hard to get if not illegal right? I will likely use
deer hair or some synthetic.
