About this fly
I find that Natures Spirit Cow Elk is a great material for this fly. I also strip one side of the hackle so it will give nice tight wraps. The Hook is a curved hook that is commonly used for terrestrials.
Inside the vault every material on this fly opens to its own card, and you can save the fly to your own boxes.
