This is the second video in our series on how to tie fuzzy nymphs and streamer flies using hair and fur from skin patches. In this video I tie a typical fuzzy nymph inspired by Polly Rosborough’s flies and Dave Whitlock’s Red Fox Squirrel Nymph.

I use this for trout fishing but it is great for perch, panfish and any other insect eating fish.
