Great looking pattern, Lucian. Just curious, do you ever bend the hooks to more accurately imitate the nymph movement (or buy them pre-formed)?

 

Thanks for sharing,

Tim

Thanks

@TCTROUT - no, I do not bend the hooks for better looking flies. I use them like they are. I love to tie simple and fast tying flies .I always appreciate the realistic work but I prefer to tie as simple as possible. For example this model is quite complicated and I do not very much to tie it. It takes around 10min. But there are a few moments when I go for fishing in Lapland ( north Europe - Polar circle ) when only these nymphs work. So I have with me 10pcs with bead heads and 10 tied classic with wing case and thorax.
