Jelly Bean Caddis Dry Fly

Through out the Grayling season i have been messing around with the deadly but horrible squirmys !!
while using this weird material i started to stretch it around a body of a fly and noticed the amazing translucent effect this gave off.
so before long i was experimenting with the weighted tungsten bugs and the effects were amazing for such a easy fly to tie.
So while out bugging i did notice that the flys never seemed to go down to the depths of the river as good as a hairs ear type fly and then on returning home i threw a length of this squirmy material into a bowl of water and was amazed to see that it floated like a cork!
That was then when i thought what a good dry fly this mad stuff would be..
There are plenty of other materials on the market that can give a good transparent effect but as we all know but  they are a pain to use and sink !
so what are the advantages of using this material for the jelly bead caddis?
1. it floats
2. soft touch feel
3.dirt cheap
4.water proof (wont drown your fly)
5. gives a sick effect that hopefully the trout will love!
6. very realistic
7. very easy to use
8. using different squirmy colours and threads the limit is endless what effect you want

When i showed my mate Scott Webster he was laughing his head off as he said it looked like you could pop it with your fingers and goo would pop out !!
So below is the Jelly Bean Caddis emerger, i hope you have ago and come back to me with your results..
have a mess around with different threads and coloured squirmy.
Will it be better than any other Caddis dry fly? i dought it but its one cool mother fooking looking and easy to do..
