This is a very good Nymph pattern, and will be fishing my own variant of it. Thank you Hackles &Wings for this pattern.

Thanks a lot Stan!

I have been killing it with this pattern this spring. I varied from your version and used a dubbed body picked off natural hare's mask and used cdl for tail but I'm pretty sure if I could find what you use it would hook em just as much or more. Thank you!

I tie one like that with brown and olive body's here in N. California. It's called Hogans nymph S&m. I think its the crystal flash legs that the fish key on, because I tie it with pheasant tail for legs and don't get much response.

[@HacklesAndWings]

Had never heard of that fly, but looks like a really good one. These legs sure make the difference

[@flytyer2368]

I have a question for you. I typically remove the two small filaments from the synthetic quill. I think it makes for a nicer looking abdomen and allows any underbody to show through better. What are your thoughts?

[@HacklesAndWings]

+Mark Patenaude I've actually never tried to remove them, will have to try this out. As you say, I am sure it would give a more natural tranluscent body. Thanks for the idea!
