Junction Shrimp - Tube & Double/Treble

[Sloggi]

Could someone post a picture of this fly in the forms detailed in the heading? I've read the thread on this and looked at two pictures but they were too far off to see the detail.

I'd like to tie some up for the "last hour of the day" unless someone can offer an alternative?


Cheers

I thought it may look something like this, I could be completely wrong though.

[say]

I didn't realise the bottom half of the body was yellow floss.

I thought that the orange bucktail was tied half way down the shank or tube and left bare.

[say]

just realised my last post is a bit confusing.

I'll try and explain better - Where the yellow/black floss meets, I thought this is where the orange bucktail was tied. The hook shank / tube is left bare below the orange bucktail.

I'll dig out the camera and take a pic of the ones I have here

Like I said, I could be wrong.
I read it as half yellow half black body.

Thanks, and I think you're right Potbelly. On the tube version, I think the orange comes from between the two body colours. On your version should the white be all around the fly an not only on top?

As in a tube fly wing?
You could be right, the only pics I could find were tube flies, I thought the wing may be different on a treble/double.

Salmonking's version looks very tasty but most of the junction shrimp tubes I've seen have been a sort of "two tier" effect with white and reddy/orange. Unfortunately I don't have a digital camera. I found one on google but there was some problem with posting the image. I copied the link but don't know if it will work.
