Catskill Curler Stonefly Nymph
Developed by Matthew Vinciguerra from Brooklyn New York and his fly was included in Art Flick’s Master Fly Tying Guide, but because of Matthew’s Brooklyn accent it was mispronounced as the “Catskill Coiler”.
This is a fairly simple pattern for a beginner tier. No dubbing required but has a double wingcase to add a new tying technique.
