Super, Man! Looks like you’ve discovered their weakness.
Congratulations on a day well spent!

Pretty jealous right now...that fly must be a lot more attractive to the fish than it was to my eye at first...shows to go ya what us normal humans think.... Dubbn is not normal, as Ray just said Super Man...

Ha Ha ... I forgot to create a large black head on all but the last one! I bet I can make them work!
Size 18 Ginger Kryptonite.

The little Black Kryptonite killed it today. As a bonus I nailed a couple pretty Bows on a Black and Copper Soft Hackle that I was using as an attractor. Size 12
I think it looks like a little Black Stone nymph. Maybe the trout think the same.

Lovely fly! That is another on my SOCIAL DISTANCE tying list!

Hard to go wrong with black, and copper is under appreciated by many.

From now until Spring Runoff is over, Black and Copper always works well for me. Whether it be a beaded nymph or a simple Soft Hackle.
It has never been "the must have" pattern, but always produces a few nice fish, and works as a great attractor pattern. I always have a couple stashed away.
