Maybe one of the simplest of all nymphs, but certainly one of the most effective patterns ever. It´s specifically famous amongst competition anglers.
That should not stop you though.
..
Materials needed:
-
CZ grub style or straight nymph hook – I prefer hooks with “big” eyes, as mine are getting bad. Hook size 16 to 10 approximately. I prefer this pattern in size 10 or 12.
-
Dyneema thread
-
“Flexibody” by Virtual Nymph products. In preparation you need to cut a 2 to 3mm wide strip off the card.
-
Dubbing
-
Adhesive lead foil
-
Copper wire
That pattern is "generic", meaning you can & should change the colours and the type of dubbing ad lib.
