    171.jpgI have lots of luck with this little guy:
    size 10 nymph hook
    reverse wrap the body hackle with a heavier wire for sinkability
    gold bead chain eyes
    yarn body
    tail is dyed olive pheasant fluff-I think that's the secret

    I do distinguish between dragonfly and damsel fly nymphs....but they are both available at the same time most of the time....but they are usually in different water columns.
