I thought this was a nice nymph pattern and Erik does a great job of explaining how to tie it. If you’re looking for a new nymph to put in your box, this would be an interesting one to fish with and try out.
Hook: Daiichi 1560 – standard nymph hook
Thread: 8/0 brown
Tail/Legs: Mallard Flank (Dyed wood duck)
Rib: Small wire – black
Body: Superfine dubbing – mahogany brown
Split Wing: Goose Biot – black
Wing Casing: Razor Foam – yellow
Thanks Paul! This is a really nice fly. I downloaded it for my winter tying session.
Nice Howard, I’m glad you like it!
Yep, it won’t be long we’ll be settling in for winter tying season.
