Tungsten Jig Yellow Spot Fly Tying Materials

Continuing with the jig fly trend, the Yellow Spot Jig Nymph is one of our favorite patterns. This fly can be adapted to many different colors of 'hot spot' easily, but the yellow seems to do the trick quite well in the summertime. If you fish the Black Hills streams, this is a pattern I wouldn't be stuck without!
