Hi everyone this is a fun pattern I gave a whirl without really knowing the exact details but from hearing Luke Bannister talk about it on the Fly Culture Podcast and also perusing his website. In the end on his YouTube channel he has a video of him tying it. He does use a rooster hackle. I guess my fly is a variant 😁.
Mr. Bannister is a rod maker in the UK who crafts bamboo, graphite and glass rods. He also makes and sells Stuart Crofts furled leaders. Many noteworthy anglers have his rods and leaders. He also has a fun YouTube channel mostly of his fishing adventures.

After making my video I found his showing the tying. He does use a rooster hackle. The video is here:
