I bought it a while back and they were productive. I've started tying flies and am trying to replicate it looking to find a how to video.

Don't know what it is...but the material looks like...

Red thread for the butt
Black vinyl D rib for the body
Grey dubbing for thorax
Grizzly hackle for the hackle
Gold bead

Shouldn't be too hard to replicate. Put gold bead on the hook, (add lead wire if needed), put down a base layer of thread to the back of the hook, start with the red thread butt, tie in vinyl rib, advance the thread, wind on the rib, secure rib and cut excess, add dubbing and wrap in dubbing, tie in hackle, advance the thread, wrap the hackle, secure the hackle, a few more security wraps, tie off and head cement. Done.
 
Thank you guys.. Just to pick up the materials.. Im finding its hard to keep track of what I have and what I need
 
I agree with MB. The thorax looks like grey hare's ear dubbing, and the collar is grizzly soft hackle.

either that or a red floss
 
Red Butt soft hackle, Generic pattern usually tied with herl and peacock soft hackle. Your version uses a dubbed thorax...hair's ear, seal, possum etc. + bead.
