20 Incher Stone Fly Tying - Best Classic Stonefly Nymph For Spring High Water

The 20 Incher Stonefly Nymph is one of the greatest stonefly nymphs ever created. Now considered a "classic" fly, but do not underestimate it fishiness just because of it's age. The twenty incher is a very versatile fly and imitates a wide range of insects. It can be tied large or small, light or heavy (with a tungsten bead...or 2 for that matter!). This is another one of the must have flies in your flybox. This step-by-step tutorial covers all the key materials and techniques needed to create this heavy, durable fly, featuring a weighted underbody, lifelike rubber legs, and a segmented, stonefly-style abdomen. Designed to sink quickly and imitate large stonefly nymphs, the 20 Incher is perfect for fishing in fast-moving rivers and deep pools where trout feed on these nutrient-rich bugs. Follow along to tie this effective nymph pattern, a must-have for targeting hungry trout during the spring stonefly hatch!

I tied one! LOL. It took me a few tries and I had to go back and redo some steps because it is really easy to creep up on the eye with this one, but it looks like a bug now!

[@petemelnick2249]

Wow. This is waaaay out of my league. I can’t wait to try it! Thank you for sharing.

[@TheXeniaman]

A deadly fly. Well done.

[@johnshand6176]

Always a pleasure to watch, Will tie up a few for my upcoming trip to the Waioeka River, down under in NZ. Thanks

[@outdoorkid1619]

Amazing pattern I have tied some of my own and rainbows and panfish love them

[@louellis6796]

I really enjoy your how-to videos. Great instructions. On the older site, a material list was included with each pattern. The 20 incher is a killer pattern (recently used it on the Taylor River in Colorado and caught a nice brown). I want to tie more of these but do not remember the materials used. Could you post this stuff with your videos?

[@mikerawls9619]

Just subscribed. A minute or two about how to actually fish the fly du jour and perhaps what regions would be effective to fish would be awesome.

[@robertmrivera]

If I am trying to buy supplies from your Amazon how do I know what to buy? Many of your videos don't tell what hook or thread color/type.

[@mikeyford1869]

Stroke those fibers bro

[@larssantana4175]

Hello! You guys make awesome videos! Any chance you can do a video on a double bead peacock stonefly (aka a cheeseburger)? This guy did one but it’s not as good as you guys can do: kzbin.info/www/bejne/goa1i6OJltR_fbc I have been trying to tie this pattern and can never get it right. It’s tricky business with those double beads.. Thanks!

[@paulcleverley2158]

It's beautiful but fly tiers need to show a fish on the line with them. The art form is beautiful but show us a fish in the mouth. This will double your work here but I've seen some unbelievably perfect flies on KZbin tied without the show me element. Show us the money.

[@bakdrft2009]

Double yawn. Fish the fly yourself ahole

[@gregwoodburn4425]

I think that’s definitely a fish getter,sink tip line on a swing, yeahbaby

[@marcjalbert4139]

You clearly haven't spent much time fishing western water. This is a killer pattern and Tim nails the presentation.
