I've been messing around with copydex and came up with this mayfly pattern. What do you good people think.

Nice.

The use of copydex in mayfly patterns has been about for many years.
The most famous being the copydex spent gnat by Barrie Cooke in Peter O'Reillys book "Flies of Ireland".

Its addictive stuff to use. Try rolling it with seals fur to make the bodies of buzzers and other terrestrials.
