Hot Tail Nymph

No comments yet

I’ll tie an all-round river nymph this time. It’s a quick tie. The small hot spot on the tail gives this fly a special power.
Sometimes you’ll want a fly that stands out just a bit. Especially in water that’s a bit murky, a hot spot on a nymph can make a big difference.
Of course you can tie this fly in hundreds of color combinations. But be sure to use contrasting colors for the hot spot in the tail. Have fun with this one!

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
