Your muddler pattern was one of the mainstay patterns for the Orkney Trout Fishing Assoc's Benson & Hedges team in the 80s & 90s. During that period we had a record catch for the B&H on Leven, and, as I remember, most of the 13 fish I weighed in were on it.
I devised the pattern, which is almost identical (without the tail), in the late 70s.
You can be sure if it seems logical to you then someone else has tied it.

Yours, as always,
Grumpy Old Git
