How to tie a Perfect Stonefly Nymph

http://mtbpt.blogspot.com/2010/10/how-to-tie-perfect-stonefly-nymph.html Capt Matt quickly ties a realistic, weighted, stonefly nymph. This stonefly pattern is easy to tie, uses very few materials, and works very well. Be sure to use a strong hook and heavy tippet when you fish this killer fly! "...the best stonefly pattern I have ever used and it is a pleasure to tie!" Capt. Matt guides the Roaring Fork River and the Colorado River for big trout with stonefly nymphs, if you want to ride in his boat, go to http://www.riplips.com

what kind of hook are you using? I don't typically see them with the hump. Did you just take pliers to it?

[mtbpt]

@tonyidaho hello tonyidaho, i like to use a daiichi 1730 - #8 or #6, that is the hook of choice... but you can most certainly take a straight shank hook and bend it, i have done it many times! ~ mt
