Here is a step by step of the prince nymph, one of my favorite and one of the best searching nymphs around. Hope you all like it

Thanks. My supply of these is about used up and I believe I'm going to use your step-by-step tonight to tie up a few.

Nice SBS. I agree that's a good goto fly for about any species.

Nice and thanks for posting - is there a trick to getting the tail biots to stick out so nicely?

I don't think I've ever tied in "wing" biots facing forward and then pulled them back over themselves. Assuming that the biots are flexible enough so they don't break or crack when you do this, that's a really nice technique.

All I do (you can see in the picture) is make sure they are linbed up evenly and tied in at the right angle

Many people seem to have never seen the technique. I have yet to have any biots crack or break and for some reason (could be just me) it seems to make the fly and biots more durable when tied that way

And sure as shootin' easier for me to get the placement right....thanks for that
