The Swimming Nymph is designed to imitate the ephemeropterea-nymphs in a free-swimming stage in the water, rising to become a hatched insect. As our Stone Clinger, the Swimming Nymph Shell is printed, precut and domed with UC-gloss on the head-part. The body for the fly is made of a thin precut rib with a darker gradient line for giving segmentation to the nymph-body. Tied on a curved “swimming-nymph” hook with a dubbing front body gives the fly a very realistic look, and again a very fast-tied fly in just a moment.
