Retying nymph box what flies.

[roll cast]

Started to clear out my nymph box and get rid of all the useless patterns I put in it, wondering what to put in after I finish with the hares ears and pheasant tail nymphs. I mainly fish stillwaters so that might Help thanks.

a few damsels have you looked at the waters you fish to see what life it holds? that'll help alot mate, im sure a few midge/buzzer.. mosquito patterns
wouldnt be a bad idea

Buzzer are keep in another larger box, will have to see about some damsel patterns, any ideas for some that aren't lures. Where I fish theres plenty of sedge about most days so that might help with some pattern ideas.

Thanks

i dont tye damsel lures.. damsel (nymphs) ..sedge pupa would be worth a try if there present. theres loads of different patterns for them from weighted to sub surface emerger patterns.

Hi Al,

Have you tried ambre nymphs, sparkle pupea or even fiery brown nymphs? I always find that fiery brown is an excellent colour for sedge.Even a hare's ear CDC from 12's right down to 18's, always does it for me!!

Tightlines,

For stillwater fishing i believe that the following flies in various sizes & colours covers everything...

Diawl Bachs
Hares Ears
PTN
Crunchers
Damsels
