Stoneflies work well and are pretty fun to tie.

How about some Royal wulfs and buggers.. Guide's hare's ear... This one is totally tricked out and fun to tie.

This one looks pretty cool. One more pattern added to the tie to-do-list.

There's a few patterns I used as my bread and butter when guiding...

Orange tail olive. Lil' black basztard
------------------------------- -------------------------
sizes----# 12-14 ( 1XL nymph). Size----#12-14 (1XL nymph)
Thread---6/0 olive (uni-thread). Thread---6/0 black(uni-thread)
Tail-----tuft of orange antron. Tail-----black hackle fibers
Body-----olive chenille. Body-----peacock hearl or (seal tied sparse)
Hackle---Lt brown (furnace) palmered. Ribbing--blue tinsel or k-flash
Hackle---black (tie sparse) then trim all hackle size length of hook gap *(important step)



If I had to pick one pattern for late fall-winter it would be the Lil'black basztard,....this is deadly pattern!...Georgian bay to lake ontario.


If you have tying or material questions would be happy to help.

have a picture? other name? or a sbs, haven;t found anything on google for these pattern names

 

[Bow Man]

Yeah FF, I looked all over the place to find info on these patterns and turned up nothing.

I just tied this up based on materials list and whatnot

Still trimming the ends off your hackle...stop it...

trimmed the ends of that particular because thats what the poster instructed to do. other than that, i never do

Hackle---black (tie sparse) then trim all hackle size length of hook gap *(important step)

 

[Pinswing]

Makes for ugly FF...
I see a small hook size, maybe some fine Whiting dry fly hackle so you don't have to trim.
Bob's your uncle, or not.
DO IT
:idea:

it does make it look ugly to fly tying artist like yourself

yea, possibl on the dry fly hackle, but again, without more info from the person that posted the materials list, neither one of us has any way of knowing for sure.

You won't get the same movement from a long hackle trimmed down vs an appropriate sized feather
