Need a better picture to be sure but looks like a goldhead GRHE nymph variant as it has a palmered hackle

I think it's a Blur Fly?

If you dont find out what it is, try a goldhead damsel.
I think you'll find it just as deadly if not more so.

Looks like it could be some kind of G/H Sedge Pupae to me, but a clearer pic would help.

Thanks guys,

For all the comments i will try and get a better picture put on as i can't afford to loose the last one i have.

I have tried a goldhead damsel and not caught anything with that so far.

Many Thanks

Graham
