The body for this natural looking caddis nymph imitation is made with latex strips. The latex comes in sheets of different thicknesses which can be cut into strips for tying. It also makes great segmented bodies for stonefly and other nymphs. It's been around for years but one place that you can purchase it at is Hook and Hackle.
