Tying Nymphs - curved or straight hooks?
Hi, I see the links you are posting, however, I can not see any links in my signature at all. If I try to post a link in my messages it won't let me post them. I see a message at the bottom of my posts that says I need to have 25 posts in order to see links.

Something is not right because the number of posts I've made has not changed. It's stuck at 15.

Tying Nymphs - curved or straight hooks?
Mark, that's a very neat web site. I do have Hughes' "Wet Flies" and I like the ideas of flymphs and soft hackles a lot. Many of the flies I tie have soft hackles. I also noticed that when you tie yours on curved hooks, the body is rather short (exeption is your black star). I was wondering if that is some sort of a rule to keep the body short or if that is just a personal preference? -- Karel Live long and fly fish :fish: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Karel's Profile: http://www.njflyfishing.com/vBulleti...php?userid=776 View this thread: http://www.njflyfishing.com/vBulleti...ad.php?t=12846 ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =----

Tying Nymphs - curved or straight hooks?
Hi Karel, Glad you like the site. I'll add more patterns after I get moved and begin my tying sessions once more. Body length, for me, is really a matter of preference and imitation to some extent. I try to make the bodies end on the shank, on most of the flymphs, so that if you drew a line downward it would strike the barb about half way through. I've often tied the Black Gnat very short to look, actually, more gnat-like. Tied longer, I think it works great for dark or black caddis. Also, spiders are tied, generally, on shorter shanked hooks with fairly short bodies or with the hackle actually wound over the body. Everyone ties a little differently and has little quirks, so to speak. Tie what works the best for you, or better still, for what the fish like. You'll find your fishing more rewarding if you do.
