Thanks Squeezy. My photo skills might be worse than my tying skills ha ha.

Pink Pookie / Dean Reiner / Livingston MT Hook: 2XL nymph hook (this one’s a 12)* Thread: Red UTC Ultra-Thread 140 Denier Foam: 2mm craft foam. Tan foam for the wing, pink for the belly. Under-Wing: Natural deer hair or cow elk. Indicator Post: Small slip of 2mm craft foam– Orange Legs: Rubber legs, medium yellow/black barred * I like a nymph hook instead of a dry. They seem to tip over less on the water. Super glue is my friend with foam flies.

Hey SBPatt - I think your Foam-Backed Sedgehog would make an excellent, long floating traveling sedge imitation for lakes. Maybe an olive color size 8 and 10. Thanks

Hey Chasing_Tails- You're Raggedy Stone is awesome.

That was tough! It pained me to have some of my faves lose.

Heck ya. Fun idea guys.

Timely! Any tiers here from Ukraine? In my thoughts and prayers.

An online fly tying catalog might be a good place to start. Lots of pics of feathers. There are many online shops. Google fly tying catalog.

Although I've never had a pair of high end waders, I've tried a few on that fit too snug in the feet. Easy on and off is of huge importance to an old timer like me. I fish a lot of brushy stuff. Cabelas high and dry work nicely but they do leak pretty quickly. Does anyone have a suggestion?

I used white thread with no color preserver years ago for a see through wrap.

Like the tinsel on the head.

It would look cooler if it was maroon and white. Ha ha

Looking for Hardcore Nymph guys
tferg replied to David 82nd's topic in Fly Fishing Gear & Techniques
There are tons of great instructional videos out there so nowadays you can really get up to speed quickly. But over the last 50 years, I found the main differences between a good nympher and a not so good nympher is believing. It might sound nuts and simplistic but that is THE difference. You gotta believe every bump and hesitation is a fish. As they say, hook sets are free so use them - especially when your beginning. -
