![]() A real classic March Brown nymph is the Bob Jacklin version (most traditional ties have this general look): 'March Brown Nymph \"Fly of the Week #70 - FAOL' (http://tinyurl.com/32ksj3) For the impressionistic end, the Polly Rosborough one is really interesting. It is a brown marabou tail with a palmer hackled body trimmed into a cone shape to give the general impression of a March Brown nymph without all the details. Don't weight it so it slowly wiggles back and forth in current - action means a lot for this tie and it is good for all manner of clinging mayfly nymphs. For practical fishing and to keep your nymph box less crowded, a soft hackle Gold Ribbed Hares Ear in size 10 or 12 should do the trick. All of the above work when the March Browns are about. -- JeffK ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JeffK's Profile: http://www.njflyfishing.com/vBulleti...php?userid=334 View this thread: http://www.njflyfishing.com/vBulleti...ad.php?t=13736 ----== 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 =---- |
