    This is a very popular fly for big rainbows here in Alaska. My biggest fish on one this past fall was 29 inches. I am not sure if there is a tutorial but check http://www.alaskaflyfish.net.

    Jarrad,

    You probably already found these, but here are a couple results that google comes up with.

    On the dali l. the white rabbit is not glued to the black.  I do use tear mender for gluing rabbit but in this case, I think the fly has lots more movement without doing so. I also add UV minnow belly or uv krystal flash and it seems to attract more fish. Also, try using colors other than white.  This fish was caught on a dali llama.

    So was this one.
