Like it or loath it the Bloodworm produces results year round and is a very effective winter fly especially for those that are looking for alternatives to pulling flies on smaller stillwaters.
I've tried this fly in a many variations but can't find one that touches the Apps - with a very slight ammendment.
Here's the one I use at present - I used to tie these on a longer shank Kamasan hook which was Greyish in colour with an offset hook - these were brilliant but for the life of me I can't find these hooks on the net (if only I could remember the number!)
I use UTC Nymph Vinyl Rib to create a nice segmented body (in Red not Pink - lost my Red!)
