How to tie a Nimbus Salmon Fly

The Nimbus was created by Jeff Piercey Of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Its a fantastic Atlantic Salmon pattern and I use it often when targeting this species.

Looks great to me! I actually like when tyers rotate the rise a bit, gives a couple of different views of the fly as it progresses. Well done!

If you run it through you fingers several times it flatten's the Antron out .A trick I learned by Savage flies on you tube.Floss is also a good alternative .

A fantastic producing pattern for sure! One variation I have started using on this and other patterns like the TnL where dyed guinea has been the typical choice is to use dyed grizzly hen saddle instead. Makes for a nice looking, full throat and the fish seem to like it as well. I remember a comment from Rob Solo back in his old Hooks and Hackles show about using dyed grizzly instead of guinea because the barring in grizzly imitates natural insects better.
