What are them last ones there HH,they are really very cool looking.Do you have problems with the chenille and stuff spinning around on the hook shank like I do??lol.

 

[CrappieHappy]

Bruce, how far back are you going with your thread base? You should be going back to just before the hook point. Do you lock your chenille in with head cement before wrapping the body?

 

[SaltyBuckster]

I don't want to hijack this thread.I started a post on my problems,lol.Show this guy some nymphs.

 

[jschmidt]

not a problem Salty.
HHawkins I really like the tails on the first couple.

Hares ears, pheasant tails, any sort of soft hackle.... Just tie whatever nymph you want to!

I have been messing around with some new ones lately, hope to get some pics soon. I've posted a few here before. :jig:

Nymphs, stones, suckers...

Chain gang creature...

These are actually flies with heavy hematite beads tied up front. Some are easily castable with spinning gear, but the smallest need either xtra weight (split shot) or be used under a float.
Bead Heads...

These last ones are not mine, but good stuff. There are more, just can't think where they all are at the moment.
Buggy mayfly nymph...

Last one i can find was from Swap 7. Roll down through the pics and look at Stump Hunters - 2nd to last picture.
Swap 7...

great stuff Attica!
nymphs look really good. I also like how you did the casing over the stone flies... I will try that one for sure.

I have an old fishing mag with an article on tying fly patterns on jigs - I'll try and dig it out and take it to work and scan it
