I don't know about you, but for me, buggy flies always hold a special place in my fly box. Maybe it's just me, but when I see deep, rocky water with green or dark algae, these flies get the job done every time. They've helped me catch some real beauties! Here are the fly tying materials ...
Here is a super simple PT tied on jig hook. This nymph is an all around pattern and together with natural pheasant brown, it should be in everybody box. I like these flies because they are easy to tie and effective almost everywhere. I fished these flies from Poland to Slovenia and Lapland. ...

Not so much to say, it is simple to tie by any tier. The nymph is supper efficient for trout and grayling in the same time. It can be pimped with a little bit of dubbing in thorax area, will work well , no doubt about that, or can stay simple as possible. For me, ...

Is not a soft hackle fly. This model is dedicated for large and strong waters with fast currents where the soft hackle does not work. I noticed that in big and strong waters, the flies tied with the soft hackle feathers don't really work, only if you cast upstream. But in this case fishing is difficult, ...
I present to you an old nymph, more precisely a version of her. My friends Mihai, Ferdi and Bogdan have been using it since 2005 and I since 2009.
