All right, here's my latest SBS for my latest iteration of my jerk bait style fly. If you want more of a glide action in it, add weight further up the shank (preferably on the underside)
PrimoTail
foam tied on top of the shank (it helps it keep its keel)
Snowrunner (nayat) reverse tied
more Primotail (this isn't black, but it's something like "Afterdark", which, IMO, has way more depth than straight up black.
backside of a chartreuse tail (x2)
I like to trim the ends so they don't stick out in weird angles when it's finished (and they will---but don't seem to impede the action much, if at all)
I'm not sure how many images I can include in a single message, so here's 1/2
