Ever heard of the Prince Nymph? If not you better get some of these in your box! Developed by Doug Prince it is a long time trout favorite. It is simple, but very effective. You can tie it with or without a bead, weighted or unweighted and with a variety of hackles and sizes. Fish the Prince as a lead fly in a tandem rig with a smaller point fly or as a dropper below a large hopper or dry fly.
Now let’s see what you can do. #avidmaxflytyers
