xvigauge 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2019 This is my version of the "George" nymph. I have made just a few modifications but it is still very close to the original. It was originally tied by Eddy George, Smoky Mountain resident, in the 1930's and though a staple nymph of the Smoky Mountain streams still today is little known elsewhere. It's distinctive feature is the white wing casing giving the fly's original name "Cottontop." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2019 Um ... except you didn't tie up any clear/light tan colors. Any time I've been around salt water, on shallow, super clear, sand bottom waters, the shrimp and bait fish are very light colored, too. What you've got looks great ... but you need to do some white/clear/light tan (sand) colors. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
