John tells us:

This month we will be tying a foam mayfly body, similar to the body Muz Wilson used on his Messy Dun fly.

The recipe includes:

• A long needle
• 2mm foam – colour of your choice
• Elk or reindeer hair for the tail
• Thread to match the foam.

In addition you will need to bring scissors or a knife to cut out the foam and your vice to hold the needle.
