Scott's Big Nymph, with Lively Legz, Holsinger's Fly Shop

At the shop I tie flies to order for customers. Scott's Big Nymph is one of the flies I was asked to tie so I thought I'd share it with you. Scott Major from the YouTube channel PA WOODS N WATER created this fly as an imitation for an Isonychia but it is better suited to imitate a Brown Stonefly. He also ties this pattern using ginger ostrich herl. The ginger makes a great pattern for a Golden Stone.

Scott has a great channel where he fishes a lot in my area and all over Pennsylvania. He also likes to use Lively Legz to fish. I don't fish them that much because of the style of fishing I do, but they do catch fish.

As with some of my other video patterns, I have this pattern for sale on our website for purchase. If the flies are out of stock or you would like me to tie one of the other flies in my video just send me an email at contactus@holsingersflyshop.com
