CDC Nymph  


tied by siestafred
Fly Type: Nymphs,
Target Species: Trout,
Recommended Region: Eastern Canada,
Imitation: Mayflies,
Material List: Hook: Any Curved Nymph hook such as Orvis 122J
Thread: 8/0 Camel
Weight: Lead Wire
Tail: Pheasant Tail Fibers
Body: 1 or 2 Ginger CDC Feathers Palmered
Rib; Gold Wire
Wingcase: Pheasant Tail
Thorax: Olive CDC Feather Palmered
Legs: Pumpkin/Black Flake Sili Legs

Tying Instructions: Tie CDC feathers in by the tip, and palmer forward. You can twist them a bit into a rope if you prefer. This fly is meant to look "buggy" when wet, so the CDC is best left scraggly. Trim the longer barbules back if desired.
This fly is based on a pattern I saw in a British magazine article, but I've lost track of where I put it !

Introducing Hatches Magazine

While Supplies Last Get the 2007,2008 & 2009 Issues for only $10

Hatches is an annual publication with a strong devotion to professional writing, beautiful photography and informative articles pertaining to both the artistic and practical aspects of fly tying. Each issue features 13 featured articles that span a massive 96 pages.

I agree with the feedback you have received about Hatches. This is by far the best magazine I have seen that shares the wealth of knowledge without the additional 30 pages of vendor advertisements. I understand they are needed revenue but it is refreshing to see the quality of your articles etc. without having to thumb through all of the ads. I also take three other periodicals that are OK but no where nearly as good as Hatches. I wish you continued success and would like the opportunity to have 3 year subscriptions some time. Thanks again for all of your hard work and excellent presentation in Hatches. Best of luck, I wish you a long life and can't wait until you are recognized as the number one periodical presenting fly fishing knowledge.
