Fly Tying Video: Vladi's Worm, A Czech Nymph as tied by Chad Gauerke

This makes a great lead fly when you are 'tight line' or Czech Style nymphing without strike indicators. This cleverly weighted and remarkably realistic worm imitator drifts with the hook-point up to reduce snag-ups and increase hook-ups.

Thread: Pink UNI 6/0
