I have all the materials and I will tie up a couple of options later...and post pics. I have the grey squirrel tail, but have also found that using a couple of grizzly hackle tips for wings also works well. Will make both for you to look at.
Also, there are a lot of other flies and different colors that work well on Da Berry. Purples have really become popular the past few years. And in the fall go to long white patterns...like zonkers, buggers and even articulated (jointed) patterns. I used to make some about six inches long for a guy who fished them behind a bubble and caught lots of over-slot cutts and big bows on them.
