What is your favorite Damsel Fly Nymph that you use.
This is my simple but very effective damsel fly nymph.
Hook: TMC 2499 SP-BL Size 12.....this is a very strong hook for its size, you can put a lot of pressure on that toad of a rainbow in the weed beds with out spring it.
Tail: Ultra Chenille Micro, color Olive......I like to keep my flies simple, and this tail has a lot of wiggle when it gets wet....also you could add gills to the end of the tail with some marabou, but like i said i like to keep it simple.
Thorax + Legs: Olive CDC Dubbing.....The CDC dubbing will make the fly suspended or sink very very slowly.....the slow sinking is what makes this fly work's so well.
Wing Case: Medallion Sheeting color Olive
Eyes : Vinyl Rib, size Med, color green .....The vinyl eyes on this fly has a green glow, which would help the trout to find it in the weed beds.
Thread: 8/0 olive
