A simple pattern using a Madeira thread with Roe Deer

Simple thread body BWO, size 18-22. Proportions are important.

Love this fly for summertime prospecting. Kinda imitates lots of things, works well in my experience when larger caddis, stoneflies or grasshoppers are around

The zebra midge is a great pattern to imitate midges in the nymph stage. Tie on sizes 16-22.

A great pattern that's caught me a lot of fish during mayfly and olive hatches. Size and colour can be varied. Olive also works well.

Flashy clouser! I’ve fished this for salmon, trout and bass, and it has consistently produced fish. Easy to tie and do different colour combos. Light colour on the bottom, darker on top.

Heavy bead head nymph imitating a mayfly, small stonefly, or caddis. Attractor pattern with good movement.

This nymph work everywhere and all season, all weathers.

One of the best nymph.

Every fisherman should have this nymph.

For my striper guys, fall is kicking off and the striped bass run is just getting started on the east coast. Fishing at night comes with many advantages, big fish move closer to shore, and sparse wiggly flies offer an enticing presentation under the moonlight to fish looking up. I fish this primarily in inlets with a combination of swinging and stripping techniques. You can also fish this in the surf with a strong left/right current. For inlets depending on the depth and current speed I recommend a sink tip or polyleader.

The Schminnow fly is the perfect fly for shallow inshore fishing or freshwater fishing. Beadchain eyes allow for a slow sink and ice chenille gives this fly a flashy profile. The marabou tail provides plenty of flowing movement in the water, attracting hungry fish.
