These are the same patterns as the last time I posted, just sized up for Steelhead and Brownies in Erie and Ontario. Also, this time I've included a new pattern, and the tutorials of how to tie the wiggle nymphs.

San Juan Worms made out of blood red v-rib or substitute (one is ribbed for her pleasure)

Wiggle Prince

Hook: any nymph hook 2x strong 1x long sizes 10-18
Thread: black 6/0
1st hook:
Tail: black goose biots
Body: peacock herl
Rib: copper wire
When finished, cut the whole hook bend off.

2nd hook:Scud hook sizes 10-18
First, start off by wrapping back to about the barb. Next, put a little piece of mono through the first hook eye, double it over itself. and tie into the 2nd hook. The rest is in order.
Wingcase: 9-10 strands of pearl flash
Body: peacock or olive ice dubbing (wrap in between tails and wings)
Tails (2 sets): yellow goose biots
Then, wrap the wingcase of flash over everything.
Wings are 2 white goose biots, and then tie off.
