Default Hill loch nymph

Hi Guys

Can any body tell me the tying pattern for the hill loch nymph. I have head that this is a great fly for wild brownies, but can not seem to find the pattern for it?

Cheers Donald

Me or the fly. Or both That is an original and it was about fifteen to twenty years ago I first tied them up.

I use it from the start of the season to the end only changing the size if the one size isn't catching put on the other. Sometimes they come out thinner than that one and less bushy but it still catches. Fished on the tail of a three fly cast and sometimes as the top dropper if I put the dry fly on the tail. Fished static or pulled it has still caught fish.
