It is from a kids toy. They are cheap. I will post a photo. Look around at Walmart etc., any place that sells cheap toys.

I tied up some of these I think they will be killers, your's came out nice

The tail is from one of those cheap kids toys, with spikes all over it. The rest is just a beaded hook with some dubbing. I didn't have the type called for, so I used what I had.
I saw this fly on YouTube. Search for tightline videos. The guy is really good. I just copied his fly.
