I've always wanted to do a nymph so I figured while I had some small heads poured I might as well give it a go. The both of these are 1/32oz heads with a size #6 hook , the bottom one is tied similar to a nymph but it really isn't as I decided to use chenille but I did use soft hackle. The first one is a brown head with brown grizzly soft hackle for the tail, I used hares ear dubbing for the body and added small gold tinsel for ribbing and finished it off with a soft hackle collar. The bottom one is a black jig head with a grizzly soft hackle tail, gray shad chenille for the body and a grizzly soft hackle collar, the reason I went with the chenille is because I didn't have any dubbing that went with the hackle I decided to use.
