tctrout 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2013 Here's a great pattern that I want to share with everyone. This is Tracy Peterson's Skinny Nelson, which I explain everything regarding it in the video. What I want to stress, especially for beginning tyers, is the second half of the video, where I go through a couple variations of the Skinny Nelson. Varying a fly can be difficult if you are just started @ tying, thus why I spent some time there.Enjoy!TC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Piker20 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2013 At least you still have fishing. Ours is all finished waaaay back in Oct until march now. Married wings are doing my head in. Divorced all the way if they even make it to the church. Most are apart before the second date. I'm sticking to it cause I want to tie up a chunk of traditional wets but keep cheating with a rolled wing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BassMouth87 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2013 Great work as always Jam! What I have been upto this afternoon, a dozen The Only nymphs from the Fall 2013 issue of Hatches, once I saw the pattern I had to tie a few up, looks deadly. Have a few more color combo's planned as well as smaller sizes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah we still have fishing all year, it is pretty hit and miss now but chance for very large steelhead coming in. Married wings - depends on the application, i seem to prefer tenting them instead of knife edge they even stick together after fishing which is nice. Keep at it! Great work as always Jam!
