I hadn’t felt really great today. Just kinda blah, so I’ve been thinking about sulphurs. The Blue Wing Olives are fun and all but. The Sulphur Hatches will be just around the corner. I have been thinking about weaving a sulphur nymph for a while, to get good contrast of a dark back with a light underbody like the nymphs have. Also i like to have a larger actractor type fly on alot of times at the head of the nymph rig to drive a lighter more realistic bug into the feeding lane. This is normally a flashback PT, or Copperhead of some kind.
Warning: What you are about to see has not been tested. It may or may not catch fish. It should!, but It’s in it’s experimental stages. This has been tied to be an attractor nymph during sulphur season as well as a heavy point fly.

You have tested it and writing form your personal experience or you find some information online?
It is useful to try everything in practice anyway and I like that here it’s always possible to find something new.
