Ever since I read the books from Sylvester Nemes about soft hackled wet flies, I had preference to them.  They are simple but beautiful and deadly effective when fished properly.

Very versital, they work well with a bead or tied with lead wire.  Fished swung downstream or fished upstream like fishing a nymph, they are a staple in my fly box.

Tie a few or I’ll tie them for you but don’t be without them!

Tight Lines!
