You use mohair yarn on that or is it dubbing?? If it's dubbing and you want it buggier you can brush it with the sticky part of the velcro to bug it out.

Okay guys, I start this one by recessing the head for the 4mm eyes. Then tie in your sili legs 1 or 2 strands of your favorite color with pearl midge flash ( krystal flash will work but it doesn't have quite as good of movement). After that tie your thread back to the bend of the hook and start building your dubbed body( I use a natural color spectra blend for the body and then a hot spot flash dub for the thorax). Slowly fatten the body as you progress forward and then whip finish . Trim the legs and flash up a little and then rough up the dubbing slightly with velcro

It's dubbing, I use Velcro on it slightly but not a whole lot because once you start catching fish on it they tease the dubbing out a lot
