Loren,
Thank you very much for the detailed instructions! What an excellent pattern and methods.
Thanks for the instructions; it is a little more complicated than it looks. I'll have to keep my eye open for those pink condoms, red ones too.
Unless you can find these in your local fly shop - here's another source

Loren's tutorials are the best I have seen yet. The anecdotes are a great way to begin the instructions. The pictures are great as well. I look forward to new ones constantly.
Eddie had some fun looking that one up....
I have seen people using pink latex gloves (painters), I will have to see where they get them. It might not be as easy to cut the material in lengths required but you can probably buy them in bulk. I use regular cream colored latex gloves for a grub pattern and it seems to hold up real well. I will post a source if I find the pink ones.
You can buy a hundred for 23 bucks with no shipping; that's a lot of flies. They also sell larger bulk packs if you think you might be tying several hundred flies.
From the instructions it appears that you will need thinner latex than you'll find in a glove.
what an excuse to have condoms in your car ::) No honey honest they are for fishing ;D " Oh yeah Ill give you some fishing " pow right in the kisser ( remember to show your girl the fly first !) I could just see it now .So honey we received a hundred condoms in the mail today ,could you explain what you think those are for :o I have to tye these just to show my old lady so I can freak her out .
Having now fished the Vladi worm, I can vouch for it being a deadly fly for rainbows. Thanks for the excellent tutorial Loren. I fished it on Tuesday, and the Housy 'Bows below the TMA pounded it. And it doesn't hang up. I only hung it once, and it was wedged so badly in a deep spot I had to bust it off. Alain was kind enough to give me a couple he tied, and Aaron & I tied a few up tonight. I've never seen a fly that looks more like actual bait, like a real bug. Very cool, Siskel & Ebert give it 2 thumbs up.
Im single again ,so now I can go get lots of pink condoms with no worries . plus Im going to need them now ;D. It does look like a real worm .I cant wait to try this out !
Loren,
Good job! I agree with Aaron. Your pics and instructions are great. Haven't tried tying them yet but I will. Nutman's posts are funny too. It will be interesting explaining this to my wife but when it comes to fishing and fly tying she's a good sport. Nymphmesiter is right too. Bow's really like pink for some reason. I usually do well fishing a pink San Juan when I know I'm fishing for rainbows. Very unique use of material-pink Condoms! Who would have thought? It's a great time to be fly fishing and fly tiyng with all the types of new materials out there and European tactics taking hold in the U.S. I think it's also very good that U.S flyfisher's are taking a look at other styles and techniques. I do know that Joe Humphreys nymphed that way in the early and mid 80's when he was in competition. He claims he started it and the Czech's copied him. I don't know for sure though if that's a completely accurate claim though. At any rate I think the Europeans are not as dogmatic as we are and much more progressive. What do you think?
