Stinkin’ Phil’s damsel
hook: standard wet fly #12
Rib: gold wire
Tail and Body olive maribou

I’m not sure whether he stole this pattern from someone who could tie or whether he invented it but it’s a lot like Phil. Lots of movement in the water, especially when you hold him under. Fish it on a dry line and long leader with a slow hand twist retrieve. Best damsel nymph pattern I’ve fished.

Don't worry bud it's in there, the photo was just zoomed in. I felt it deserved it's own entire side of the Wheatley.

I have to thank Paige for the select mcflyfoam, it’s was fun to revisit an old favorite.

 

[rattlesnake]

Just a couple Nancy p’s and a few changers.

Not my flies but I had this pic in the camera roll of some flies that Chauncey Lively tied (PA spring creek fisherman… known in the same circles as marinaro, Fox, shenk etc but not quite as popular. Thought somebody may enjoy seeing these classics, could be 30 years old! I’ve had them for at least 15 or so
