Olive Dun Snatcher:
Hook: Scud - Size 12
Thread: Ultra 140 - Fl Chartreuse
Rib: Danville flat mylar tinsel - gold
Abdomen: Olive hare's mask and seal dubbing
Hen hackle - Barred dun (Collins) - tied in by stem; palmered front to back
Wing: Hackle tips - cream
Thorax: Olive hare's mask and seal dubbing
Hackle: Hen hackle - Furnace (Collins) - tied in by tip; wrapped forward
Head Cement: H & H (Using my last bottle)

My advice is to watch the master (Davie McPhail) make it look so easy.

This pattern speaks to me. I love how you tied it, and I love watching Davie tie it. It's got 'bug' written all over it.

I watched the same video last weekend. I immediately saved the link, with plans to try these myself. Kudos to you for acting so quickly. Great job!
