Lol. Yes this is it. It was the pattern that started all the different Fades I use today. When I first started this pattern I didn't blend the dubbing like I do on the Fade series. You can see that in the photo. I like to use a thinner ribbing now and prefer a 2x long nymph hook, but other than that about the same. All kinds of dubbing seem to work, but I am most confident in seal now.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

Yea, this looks fantastic. I do like your updated version, but this one has gumption. :D
