    Peacock leach. Many emerging caddis patterns.
    They're just fish, right? Right?

    One of my best tailwater flies is a herl midge. I tie a size 18 or 20 scud hook, gold bead, gold wire, 2 pieces of herl. Wrap thread to bend, over gold wire, tie in herl at bend, wrap herl forward to bead, counter wrap wire over the herl. Tie off and you're done. Simple, effective, durable.
