Hatch Match ?

Can someone fill me in on what bugs the Ammonite Nymph in good for? I have been looking at this fly for quite some time wanting to try it.

Fish will take the ammonite for hydropsyches, rhyacs, stoneflies, mayflies, shrimps, alders and just about anything else you’re likely to encounter under the water, just vary the colour and size.

Thanks I may try it.

I posted some up awhile back (few years ago). Those colors worked fine. Tan I think.

Ummmm, is the feature where you could add your patterns or recent uploads gone?? Anyways, here's the link to one of them I did and you should see the other ones there. I have Steve's book and tied these exactly as described. I know in his newer book he updated the pattern a little as they tended to flip upside down the way he built the weight up. I think the revised one fixed it a little as he built the weight up slightly differently.
