This is my soft hackle version of a dry fly Henry Hoffman created decades ago that has often saved the day for me.
The original was tied with a gold tinsel body. My first variation was tying it as a dry with a holographic silver body on a #22 hook.

When I find a suitable neck I will tie it down to 20's and 22's.
