Quill Body Nymph- Fly Tying Video


Tying the Quill Body Nymph

Quill Body Nymph Fly Tying Video

This Quill Body nymph pattern features the new synthetic quill body from Hareline Dubbin. The addition of Hareline's synthetic quill creates a durable and realistic looking body for any nymph pattern. Coating the body with UV resin ensures durability- we like the Clear Clear Goo Hydro for applications such as these, however Loon's Thin UV Fly Finish also will work well.
