I've had this fly recommended for fishing for trout in Missouri. I
don't find this in my pattern my pattern books, but did find it on the
Internet. Is this a regional pattern (like the Crackleback I asked
about yesterday) or is it just a newer pattern? I was just curious.

Thanks in advance.

It is a popular fly here in the east. This is a tie that you can
easily experment with, using no tail, different colored rib and body.
Note the krystal flash tied in at the thorax - that too can be tied
with different colors. With the body and head made of thread, it is a
very easy tie.
