Default Bead bug

Ok I know its not exactly tying and looks a bit rough in makro but it is effective and easy to tie, 14 grub hook, size 9/0 Rocaille beads in red and gold and some thread to keep the beads in place

Tried something similar last winter with an olive tungsten bead at the front and golden rocialles behind it and a partridge hackle at the front on a straight hook. Worked alright as a caddis pattern. Am sure that your pattern will work brillaintly on the curbed hook looks lovely and segmented!!

I agree regards the segments, I had a lively 3 lber second cast last saturday and went on to land three more fish before going on the dries
