rstaight 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2015 Nice tie, I will have some of these for my next trout trip. They look awesome, when I'm hooking browns all my buddies will know is it's a nymph. Then when we are packing up the car to come home I'll give them each one. In a different color of course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
