Diawl Bach Nebenistic rendition ;) Large photo

[fly_fischa]

Haven't tied a Diawel Bach in a while, love this little wet/nymph, caught a ton of fish on them over the years. Here's one of my versions;
sz 14 Varivas Wet fly hook
Thread uni trico 17/0
UTC ultra wire red x-sm tag
Scottish Grouse tail and throat
1 Peacock eye for the abdomen
1 Peacock herl for the head



Hopefully I've somewhat redeemed my reputation with this tie Stefan?

That's real nice.

Regards,

Nice one! Good choice on the hook there, K. That's one of my favorites for winged wets but, it certainly suits this fly well.
I used to fish black Diawl Bach's with a red holo cheek for Isonychia hatches... caught fish on them too.

Thank u Scott and Eric

Varivas make some beautiful hooks Eric and ur right this one does work well with winged wets, something about the sweeping bend...

You certainly have, Karsten, 'cause I can't see no photo! It's blank, thus I can decide that it's perfect. My congratulations!

Edit: When closing, a link 'Image' appeared. Clicking on that took me to Smugmug and showed a fly that appeared the business. Returning to the forum showed the photo in it's proper place. Thumbs up.
