new bass fly

This pattern looks wicked! And I have no doubt it will catch some big bass!
Its a Kelly Galloup streamer so he uses it for big trout but Im gonna tear into some bass with it!
                                          Here's a couple of them.

in order this is the tying sequence.

rear hook- tail: marabou to match pattern color
body: same marabou pulled or wrapped forward
hackle: shlapen or webby saddle hackle to match or contrast with pattern color 
legs: rubber legs to match or contrast (contrast is better for bass in my opinion) 
front hook- eyes: medium dumbbell eyes
hooks joined by 20lb mono with 2-4 beads on it to match or contrast color 
body: medium crystal chenille or estaz
hackle: shlapen or webby saddle hackle to match or contrast with pattern color        
legs: rubber legs to match or contrast (contrast is better for bass in my opinion) 
head: stacked dear hair clipped to shape
