3 Candies for trout and grayling

These flies are among  my favorite flies for nymph fishing. I use them almost all the time, in deep waters, fast waters and in muddy  waters. These all around patterns are  versatile and can be used  for the entire fly fishing season.

Beside  the colors of the bodies, texture of the materials and hot spots,  the hook used for these flies assures  their efficiency: short shank and wide gap offers a great contact with the fish during the drill.

MayFly tyed with CDC

The fly is identical with this one tied with standard hackle:

The difference between these two flies  is that I use the fly tied with CDC on very clear and shallow waters.

The step by step is the same for both flies. The  difference is in the hackle: for one I use chocolate dun hackle and for the other I use tan CDC feather:
