Testing my latest creation

Well got out this afternoon to test out my latest stonefly creation. I went to a freestoner that I know has plenty of stoneflies. I picked a good section of stream and I rigged upped with a zug, and the latest creation trailing.
It wasn't long before my 2wt was frowning and I was smiling. I worked up through the section of stream and my little black stone nymph did great. It out fished the zug. Which tells me I need to tie some more of them! I'll do a tutorial of on soon.

    1. Thank you, Ill have to test that out next couple outings. Ill report. You missed the tying of the oldie. I tied it on sunday at the fly symposium. Perhaps it will be the feature fly at next R&D fly tying night.
