Over 40 years ago when I first started fly fishing and tying flies I tied a fly that resembles the Nyerges Nymph. I didn't name the fly. Its an Olive Colored Fly with with palmered brown hackle and I usually put in a short tail of brown hackle. I trim down the saddle hackle a bit. I've caught fish in lakes and streams with it in Montana, Idaho, Washington and Oregon. It works so I use it. Other flies, would be an assortment of wooley buggers, damsel fly nymphs, scuds, a few soft hackles (red ass) and an assortment of dry flies.
