A great pity that Veniards stopped selling the opaque plastic daddy bodies as these made by far the best artificial imo.

Steve, Turrall's still do them - not identical & only opaque cream in colour not translucent/ribbed like Veniard's used to do. They've also got a slight upward curve to them as well.

Let's have the Daddy first. Accounted for a lot of fish for me.
