Prince Nymph meets the Bugger; found this in Randall Kaufmann's Fly Tyer's Nymph Manual. Pretty buggy fly, simple to tie; not sure why it never caught on.
hook - Mustad 9671 #8
thread - Danville 6/0 black
underbody - non-tox wire .015
tail - biots brown
body - peacock herl
rib - gold wire x-fine
hackle - brown saddle
legs - biots brown
Regards,
Scott

That ought to make some buzzing noise. Nicely tied. This is a pattern I'm not familiar with.

I've fished this few times with good results. Very well tied Scott. I'm not sure I would label it a nymph though.
