chugbug27 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2018 Caught maybe my biggest trout ever last year on one of those, gp, and I was only using it as an indicator for a small nymph I wanted to scootch down in a pocket around a big boulder. The thing swooped up, rolled over, and gave me a nice surprise. Unfortunately I was using 6x and couldn't land him. Nice tie, brings back a nice memory Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GP flyfisherman 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2018 Thanks Chug, I planning on tying some more in different colors red, olive , ect. and using them as indicators probably use a small prince nymph or PT should work just fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wileecoyote 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2018 TheCream, Looks like a killer pattern. Outstanding photo which helps define fly's size and color. Did you flatten the body on these flies? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCream 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2018 TheCream, Looks like a killer pattern. Outstanding photo which helps define fly's size and color. Did you flatten the body on these flies? Â I don't flatten them. The fly is extremely simple, and based almost entirely off the "Olivia Midge" tied by the South Holston Fly Shop. I added the strand of flash in the tail, that's my only modification. Here's the recipe I followed: Â Hook: DaiRiki 125 size 20 Bead: 1/16" black brass Tail: single strand of olive Krystal Flash Rib: small size olive Ultra Wire Body: brown 8/0 thread Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
