I was inspired to tie this up after looking at the Spring 1984 FlyTyer. Tom Nixon wrote of creating the White Miller Streamer for a trout fishing friend. I thought it be a great candidate for a all synthetic build. I used Tri-Lobal hackle and Polar-Aire in the construction of this fly. I may have to trim the foam tail in the field after I see it's action in the water. This shoud be a good imitation of "whitebait". I want to thank the late Mark Delaney for rekindling my interest in Tom's patterns. It's been great fun tying variations of his work.

Gotta love Tom Nixon. I have his book, Fly Fishing anf Fly tyiong for Bass and Panfish. I use his patterns or variations of it. I first learned about Tom Nixon when joining Mark Delaney's Tom Nixon fly swap - I think it was his first annual and there were a few that followed.

Some of my favs are California Coachman, Black and Yellow, Montana Nymph, Calcasieu Pigboat, Cooney Coachman and I think the Beau was listed. I received it from Mark and landed a huge bass on it. I was just looking for it the other day.
