The latest Remnant Fly turned out to be a small Conehead Nymph. Upon seeing the conehead in my remnant box I decided to something "nymphy". Grabbed a few items and put together a sort of all purpose nymph. I think this will work well for warmwater species and might work for some coldwater species. It is a bit big for "typical" trout nymphs but can be tied in a smaller size. Have Fun --Enjoy
