Well done! Very nice wee nymph. You can also achieve the same effect with standard nymphs hooks by tying in a couple of lead wire strips along the top of the shank - just taper the length to help form a thorax. The nymph tumbles along the river bottom on its back and you don't get so many snags.
Great comment and thanks. Maybe worth doing a video using this.
