I created the LG Flymph (aka Olive Hare's Ear Flymph) to be an imitation for the Lesser Green Drake. It is going in with some other flies as a Christmas present for a flyfishing friend of a friend.

Hey Bill is a lesser green drake the same thing as a flav?

I see nothing "lesser" about this at all; looks like enough to be really, really good.

That is a a great combo and well thought out Bill. Very nicely tied as usual.

Great Fly Bill!
It would work well on my streams for sure. Where's the like button anyway?

managed to find some flavs doing their thing on the Metolius this fall...fishing with an ex-guide friend and we both hoooked fish in the big eddy on sparkle duns.

Bill,

This is a terrific pattern! It looks like it would also be a very effective damsel nymph imitation, for stillwater fishing.

I definitely need a row of these in my fly box.

Thanks for sharing.
