I have come across a new OLD fly that has been KILLER. I wanted to share it with you guys. If you tie, try it, pretty easy to tie and it is awesome.
Wiese's Four Feathers:
It was originally developed in gray pattern (still the most effective version) to utilize four feathers that work well on other nymphs: lemon wood duck for the tail, natural ostrich herl for the abdomen, peacock herl for the thorax, and natural pheasant tail for the wingcase and legs. Gold or copper Krystal Flash as an "under-wingcase" and legs complete the ensemble. It's an excellent attractor nymph used as a complement to the beadhead Prince, while in smaller sizes it's effective for spookier trout.
