Tip
Tip: Tie the featured confidence nymph on a scud hook with a brass bead, sizing down as needed
How to do it: Start at size 12 with a 3.2 mm bead and tie down to sizes 18 or 20 as conditions require
Mistake it fixes: Tying only one size of a confidence nymph
Why it works: Size range lets one pattern cover varied water and fish size. A bead and hook combination that works at size 12 needs adjustment to stay balanced smaller.
When it matters most: Fly tying
