Default Small gold head patterns

Hi All, I'm looking for some small gold head patterns at the moment.. I'm fishing Ellerdine and have recently taken a few fish to size 16 brown or black goldheads.

The flies have been taken with confidence, so I was wondering if any of you out there had any patterns worth a shot.

Best Regards

Hare's ear and pheasant tail nymph "are always worth having in your box". Good luck to you.
