FOAM ANT
(Also as step-by-step instruction.)

Foam Ant

Hook: Dry fly, #14-18
Thread: Gudebrod 8/0, black
Body: 2mm fly-tying foam, black
Indicator: Poly yarn, orange
Hackle: Rooster, black
 

Comment:
Applying some head cement to the exposed thread under the foam is not a bad idea. Foam is a quite durable material, but it doesn't make a difference to the fly if the thread breaks and it falls apart.
