Lucian.Vasies 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2015 Hi guys, This is one of my nymphs ( from winged nymphs series ) that catches trout anytime. It's not a classic fly, it's an interesting hybrid between a jig nymph and a streamer. What is so special about this fly? The way it behaves in water.It's a fly with lots of movement, you can play it behind a rock until trout will take it. Just jig it and it will be irresistible for fish cheers, Lucian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

add147 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2015 WOW that is cool looking...Is that jig head or something you custom make up instead? It has some incandescent qualities sort of to the head I think or am I just seeing things??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harold Ray 0 Report post Posted November 27, 2015 Lucian, What is the head weight on that fly? And, what weights do you using for tying these? I tie quite a few of these with maribou, flash, wrapped or woven bodies. They are successful because, if not fishing top-water, the various weights get the nymphs where the fish are. Thanks!!

vicrider 0 Report post Posted November 27, 2015 Rabbit dubbing picked out? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lucian.Vasies 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2015 Hi guys, @ Vicrider - Is Madd rabbit dubbing used for body : in fact is hare mask hair. @ Harold - depends of size, between 0.5grams up to 1.5grams. Sometimes I use bigger hooks - size #8 or #6 and the weight can be 2grams.. I prefer to use CDC instead of marabou. I used marabou but the results was not so good like with CDC. best, Lucian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JSzymczyk 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2015 Nice pattern and no doubt very effective. My question to the forum is "what's the big deal"? Jigs have been used to catch fish for thousands of years, in one form or another. I'm not taking anything away from the pattern- I am saying fly fishermen see this (and tons of others) as some sort of revolutionary concept. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harold Ray 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2015 I have been using CDC also. I thought I would try tying on jigheads to see how things worked out, did, and then they worked well on the rivers here, so they are a winner in Texas. Ray Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
