Prince Nymph  All purpose fly for River use and lakes.  I've caught tons of fish at Chopaka, Wannacut and another private lake, including several 9-12 pound Triploids.

I call this one a flashback nymph.  Its basically a beadheaded pheasant tail.   This fly is a great "searching" nymph and works well anywhere there are maylies or damsels.  Excellent stillwater fly.

I have so much of that fly tying crap that i need to get rid of.....I got one of those cheep 40 dollar kits about 8 plus years ago and then started expanding beyond that and getting more hides and furs, hooks, beads, threads and everything else for what i was tying.

But now i dont have enough time to sit down and tie flys anymore so i just buy them and the rest of my crap sits in a box collecting dust................

AWESOME FLIES BONE!!!!

Not sure if this one has a name, but basically is a damsel style prince nymph.  Works well where any damsel hatch is coming off.  Early season fish it slow.  may and June fish it with a fairly steady retrieval.  generally need a heavier tippet material.  They strike hard.

This I suppose is just another seraching nymph, hellgramite.  Dollys and big fish like this one.  Late season or holdover steelhead like it as well.

This is one of my main stonefly patterns.  I tie them in a golden color, brown, and black.

This is also a stone/hellgramite pattern.  I caught an 8 pound dolly in the Methow on this fly on 4x tippet.  Nice fish.

This is a type of scudpattern that I use in some of the hi-mountain lakes.  Worked good at Bailey p in Coville as well.  Its sort of a hybird,scud/mariner shrimp.
