Pork 'n Beans CZ Nymphs



Working on a couple CZ nymph patterns today. Nothing fancy, just plain but nutritious fare to replenish my nymph boxes. A fine way to pass a foul weather day, sitting tight at my tying table, churning nymphs and listening to the History of Rome podcasts.

tan elastic thread
a single layer of flat lead
4 mm golden olive shellback
