MulletSubsurface

A dark olive dubbed thorax followed by amber/gold glass beads and two small red glass beads toward the bend, with a bright red wool tail-tag — Colin Macleod, "the Mullet Master".

The glass-bead segmentation reads as translucent shrimp body sections, and "an important addition to the fly box for anyone targeting these enigmatic and elusive fish."
