Grannom Larva

[Tyson]

Who else likes to imitate these guys? Seems to me a very underated pattern (reverse peeking caddis). I find a lot of these on stretches of the lower and middle Provo. Like sows they can't swim. They like to drift freely in the current. Easy pickings for trout.

What other foods do you think are often overlooked by anglers? (Black flies? Rhyacophila? etc etc)

i've tied a bunch but have yet to catch anyhting on them. easy pattern to tie and they look very realistic

One of my best nymph patterns imitates a Grannom larva. If fish it pretty much year-round.

Mike, it's that "Bungie Little Neon" I tied at the last tying meeting we had. I usually tie them smaller than the natural and they really pick up fish. So during the times when I'm forced to nymph, it's one of my better patterns.

curtis i have looked at sportsmans, cabelas and 2 local fly shops and cannot find that chartruese spanflex at any of these places so i will continue to search for it.

I know for sure I got this color at Sportsman's and it's not the Spanflex brand...if that helps.

i found chartruese in the, i think, flex floss, but didn't know if that would work the same

A little ball of black ice dub for the head/legs looks nice, very lifelike.
