A Challenge For The Professionals

This is one of my favorite color combos in a tube jig. Problem is, they don't make this particular color anymore. Its a blue body with a skirt that is not clear, but not white. Kinda semi transparent with blue glitter. you can click on the picture to enlarge the image. I'm trying like crazy trying to get it right. I've come close but its still not exact.was hoping some of you experts could tie one for me. Please list the materials you used along with your pic, so I know what I need to tie it, thanks a bunch.

I am not sure what you're trying to do are you trying to come up with the clear plastic tail with blue glitter in it unfortunately you that we are down my shop is down and I can't do any plastic work you may try to post this on the dry plastic form.

No, i'm trying to find some type of pattern to tie that matches this tube jig.

I'd say winter run blue would be the closest color chenille for the body. A lot of the online shops carry it, and it's made by Cascade Crest so fly shops should have it as well.

If you want the glitter tail, you're going to have to use silicone skirt material. Looks like smoke with blue glitter would be closest. I looked around a bit online and found some with blue/black flake, but none with just blue. Maybe that would work?

Jig-1/8 oz head with #2 hook, paint-gloss orange powder paint, body-Cactus Chenille Medium Minnow Blue, tail-Strung Marabou Peacock Blue, tail-Slinky Fiber Flouro Fibre Synthetic Fly Tying Material, thread-Blue 140 denier.

Looks like the head is Flame Red to me and I would probably use Royal Blue big crystal chenille, but you could also use a Royal Blue Rayon chenille and then if you want that same tail you will need to buy some skirt material. This way the blue is close and you can probably find the skirt material at the link below.
