Steve, When it is a good popper , it deserves 2 postings. If you use the smaller foam and do it in black, when the dragon flies are buzzing the water it is a great go to fly!!

http://kwsu.org/Offers/FlyTying.aspx I know I have sent this to several on this web site, but thought it might be a good one to let everyone know about. These are tv show on flytying, great for beginning tyers, and just to refesh some techniques we all use. They tie 3 flies and discuss them and materials as they tie. Hope this will help someone and their tying skills.

Derrick, I think yarn would work good, use a wire rib that will make it tougher. But yarn is pretty durable. An off white dubbing would work then use the wire ribbing for segmentation. Can't wait to see what you come up with!!

I was thinking, yarn of some sort, but I didn't know how sturdy, or how well the yarn would handle getting stuck in the mouths' of those little beasts.
