I'm gonna show you all how to tie my most effective and notorious fly :z16
Its one of my personal favourites and has accounted for more  Rainbows than i could ever remember
As well as well over a dozen doubles, in the size shown :z16

Hook: Charles jardine living nymph - red size 16
Head: Wapsi tungsten bead in nickel - size 3/32"

Take the hook and de-barb it :z16 (you have too to get the bead on :wink)



Slide in the bead over the hook point and return to vice



Add a drop of super glue or epoxy whatever is your poison to the concave side of bead



Take a piece of Braid and clean out the eye, before the glue dries :wink



The finished fly :z16 Fish it on a slow Fo8 retrieve as the point fly on a team of buzzers, or on its own. watch the tip of the line for takes on the drop.



Please try it, it DOES work :z18
