After rooting around in a few of my favorite spots from last season I found a few has two or more varieties of Baetis(BWO) nymph. One of which stood out to me and as such I’ve tied essentially a Hare’s Ear nymph with a different color body and wing case. I tried to tie these as close as I could to the original size of the nymph and I think I came pretty close, next sample I get I will compare. I decided to dub this fly the Yeller Belly Baetis. So here it is: 

The Yeller Belly:

• Hook: #16-18 2xLong Nymph
• Thread: Yellow 8/0
• Tail: Lemon Woodduck Fibers
• Rib: Silver SM Ultra Wire
• Body: Yellow/Pale Yellow Dubbing Mix
• Wing Case: Pearlecent Krystal Flash
• Thorax: Yellow Dubbing

I’ve been doing more tying and tied 4 dozen Hare’s Ear Nymph’s as tied by Ross Mueller. I would like to thank TightLines Fly Fishing Company for having Ross at their store and putting the video of Ross on Youtube.com. I tied four dozen in size 16 and 18. Anyone who is interested in learning to tie flies or fly fish I would highly recommend using youtube as a resource. That makes 6/50.
