I've been tying that fly for years and it really works well. Try a nice lateral line using a neon lime green marker and a red marker for gills. BTW, one cuda per fly, so tie accordingly.
Hey Jack, great advice about the lateral line and gills! You are definitely right about these being one fly per Cuda! Check out what happened to one of these after a run in with a nearly 5 foot barracuda on my trip to Turks and Caicos! th-cam.com/video/9jrTkcsbV3A/w-d-xo.html
Thanks Alan! the stuff I used is called Pearl EZ Body by Hareline and its in the size Large. I think it holds is shape better than Mylar does. Here's a link to their site: www.hareline.com/item?phrase=&category=Body+Material&line=EZ+Body&stockcode=EZL284
