In the end, I really can't see a red underbody being anymore effective than a regular ASB chirono of the same size and shape, but hope this helps...

And also what professor said. Thin bag material allows more of the background to show through.
Awesome, Thanks for the tip. I really believe that the underbody does make a difference. This fly i'm talking about absolutely kills when the bloodworms are happening. Beats all my other bloodworm patterns.
