nymphing eck

[wingman]

Lost one of my best nymphs up a tree tonight but a nice brownie over a pound made up for it (I think) anyway a nymph down means another must take its place, so i came back and tied this one, which is nothing like the one I lost. Probably look better on a kamasan B175 but I tied it on this barbless hook for a change. Not sure about the pearsalls salmonberry,maybe oilve would be better I think.




Thanks for looking and all comments welcome

cheers

Once again, great proportions. Enviable tying.

Lovely looking little nymph. As you rightly say, olive would have been better than the salmon berry. Looks like you used enough to tie 2 clyde style flies. Where did you get your salmon berry from?

Thanks Bill and colin, salmonberry i got from Steve at cookshill or possibly Phil at FTB one or t'uther anyway

Nice tying again Mark. I think it would be suited to one size smaller for the hook. Materials tied to same size as posted (if you know what I'm getting at?).
The salmonberry gives it a sort of tups look.
