Fulling Mill Gold Ribbed Hare's Ear Nymph - Natural

The gold rib is what the name is about

The dressing goes back a long way, with hare's ear fur turning up in patterns Charles Cotton set down in 1676, but the gold rib is what gave it the name and it does two jobs at once. It segments the body the way a real nymph's abdomen is segmented, and it puts a thin line of flash down the fly without brightening the whole thing. The gold bead adds the depth. A sound general nymph on rivers and lakes both.
