In reference to John's story on the Saltwater section of this board, he mentions using a Skittle Fly in Belize for a variety of fish.
I can't seem to find a pattern for this fly. Is anyone out there familiar with it and where can one see a picture or a pattern?

Tony, not sure if you saw it, but Bill posted a picture of one in a reply to John's thread in the Saltwater section.

Tony,.... If I recall correctly, I saw a picture and a recipe for the pattern (Skittle Mantis Shrimp) on Orvis website under Fly Tying 8) 8) .... About a two weeks ago :?: :?:

Hope it's the one you need and it's still on the site.... 8)
