Featured Fly - BWO Nymph

Here is another great fly from the latest issue of Fly Tyer, I saw it and immediately grabbed all the materials to tie it. I have fished it a few times this winter, and it has performed will. Whether there is a full on olive hatch, or you know know that there is olives in the system, make this one of your first picks this winter.

Thread: UNI Thread 6/0 - Olive 
Tail: Senyo's Shaggy Dub 
Abdomen: Turkey Biot - Olive
Thorax: Superfine Dubbing  - Olive 
Wing Case: Scud Back - Black
Legs: Senyo's Shaggy Bug

Step 1: Make a thread base.


Step 2: Tie in a single strand of  shaggy dub, making a V for the tails.


Step 3: Tie in the Biot, then wrap your thread half way back to the hook eye.


Step 4: Wrap the Biot forward.


Step 5: Tie in the Scud back, for the shell case.


Step 6: Tie in one strand of shaggy dub on each side of the fly.
