flytire 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2021 Butcher Nymph Category - Nymph/wet fly Hook - Mustad S80-3906, S82-3906B (or equivalent substitute), Size 8-14 Thread - Black Tail - Red hackle fibers Rib - Oval silver tinsel Body - Flat silver tinsel Wing case: Black feather fibers Thorax - Black dubbing Hackle - Black hen This pattern is a nymph-shaped version of the classic wet Butcher. The difference lies in the fact that the wing on the original has been substituted for a wing case, and a thorax of black fur is added to enhance the nymph shape. This fly is an attractor pure and simple. The Flytier's Companion - Mike Dawes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
