Tungsten Quill Emerging Nymph Fly Tying Materials

This pattern is one of our favorites to fish right before a Blue Winged Olive hatch. It imitates an emerging mayfly nymph extremely well, and fishes very well as a dropper behind a dry fly. It can be tied to imitate different mayflies by changing the color of the Polish Quill you use for the body. Tie up a few and give them a try!
