Hi Liam,

Would give it go but no work = no materials, no hooks so im going to be down on the tying m8.

I did try a couple of damsel nymphs with french, which P generously donated, the idea could work on may nymphs i suppose.

Tie them in some bigger sizes - #10 and bigger.

Hope they are of some use to you Liam

Happy New Year

Hi Liam,
