Alex,

Don't know if this is what your after

magpie and peacock

I've tied a few up and they look very nice.

The original from Lets fish the Clyde by Robert Sharp is

Body : Black silk ribbed with silver wire.

Wing : Magpie tail feather dressed flat.

Hackle : Three turns of black cock.

Hope this helps
