AB,

I have a dressing of sorts called 'The Shimmy', but I believe the Correct dressings is on a need to know basis.

Let me dig it out and I'll edit my post asap.

Carl

Edit:

A Dressing for a 'Shimmy Variant' listed in an article done by Jim Crawford a year or two back.

Hook: Kamasan B175#10
Bead: Black Brass 4mm
Tail: Black marabou with 3 strands of Blue UV
Body: Black Mini UV Straggle
Hackle: Black Palmered down body.

Rib, wasnt listed but I guess balck wire would do.

Hope this helps

Carl
