Bit of a blast from the past this. Created by Ed Sutryn in Pennsylvania in the late 1960s who patented the bodies and the fly. Was for an ant fall he had trouble fishing. The body is made from balsa wood plugs. You could buy these ready made from Ed and later a friend of his who took over the business after he died. I don't think you can get them any more. Was lucky enough to be given a whole heap by a mate in the 'States. Foam plugs are just as good and more durable, but I kinda like these little things and they do work well.
