Today we look at and early season pattern tied by Steve Cullen. The Viva Nymph is one of Steve’s favorite patterns and has been found effective in small areas in Stillwater. Nymphs are a major part of the Trout’s diet and at the right time of day you will witness a lot of movement in the water, pair that with the classic stillwater Trout Catching Viva colors and you have a winner. The Black and Green variants are a must in your flybox so tie a few of these on a size 10 or 12 hook and be ready when the Trout are on the feed but need an eye catching morsel!
All the materials needed to tie this fly are available from Glasgow Angling Center as listed below, but as always, if you need any help finding materials or replacements, we’d be happy to help.
