What have you tied today?

Hi Pete, The nymph body material is called Bead Cord. Available online. The one I used is a clear which is coloured by an underbody of primrose thread and topped with a sharpie.

thanks robbie, nice nymphs jim, like the body effect too.

The search for an easy one continues ! The body is a bit 'footery' and while you can see segmentation on the photo, it is not very visible to the eye. I suppose it gives a good two tone effect but I wonder if a simple silk body or dyed pheasant tail would be just as good and less hassle ?
How important are the three split tails on these fellows ?[attachimg=1]

managed a few wee 16  CDC scruffy Olives to break the nymph monotony....... 37 days!

Lovely Andy! Look forward to tying them on. I might get home today.

That's a cracker Andy, might just have to copy that one.

Nice and simple. Pheasant fibre tail, copper tinsel, orange hackle and sparse cloak of mallard. Will pull in nice and slim in the water.
