Jelly Bean Buzzer

Fly: Rob Denson, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann

Hook: Kamasan B110/100 size 8/10/12
Body: Chartreuse Spanflex followed by several coats of Sally Hansen 'Hard as Nails'
Coat 1: Clear
Coat 2: Pale red (very light stain from red marker pen)
Coat 3: Darker red
Thorax 'blood': A spot of red marker pen on the hook before applying the Sally

Note: With the darker red stained Sally, concentrate these coats toward the head/thorax end, thus giving the slight graduation in colour. Apply the lighter red to the whole fly, this gives the chartreuse spanflex its nice golden olivey appearence.No thread on this one. Whip finish the Spanflex by hand.
