Modern Nymph Fly Tying Materials Kit

Ready to finally organize your tying desk and fill your fly box with nymphs that actually work?

We've all been there: a chaotic drawer overflowing with random spools, half-used dubbing packs, and a jumble of hooks and beads. You've spent a fortune collecting, but still can't seem to find the right materials when you need them.

The Rivfly Modern Nymph System is the antidote. Engineered for the modern angler, this system is built with 100% advanced synthetic and cruelty-free materials. Our proprietary Ice Dubbing offers superior flash and durability over traditional animal fur, while our bionic quills create perfectly segmented bodies—all without harming a single animal.

This isn't another bag of clutter; it's a streamlined, logical system designed to turn your vise into a high-performance nymph factory.

Your Blueprint for a Full Fly Box: What's Inside & How to Use It

Each component in this system has a specific, vital purpose. Here’s your guide to what you get and how it all works together.

Part 1: The Foundation - Hooks & Beads

(All hooks are premium, barbless, high-carbon steel. All beads are high-density 97% tungsten or Brass.)

• FTH-JIG-B-421 Jig Hooks (#8/10/12/14/16 10pcs each): The cornerstone of modern nymphing. The 60-degree bend allows your fly to ride "point-up," drastically reducing snags. Use for: Perdigons, Frenchies, Jig Streamers.
• FTH-NYM-B-341 Wet Nymph Hooks (#10/12/14 10pcs each): A classic, versatile shape for buggy patterns. Use for: Walt's Worms, generic nymph patterns, soft hackles.
• FTH-NYM-B-2202 Scud & Pupa Hooks (#14 20pcs): The curved shank is essential for imitating the natural shape of crustaceans and emerging pupa. Use for: Scuds, Sowbugs, Czech nymphs.
• TYM-TC Slotted Tungsten Beads: The slot allows these beads to easily fit onto the bend of Jig Hooks, ensuring perfect balance and a deadly jigging action. Tungsten gets your fly down 2x faster than brass.
• TYM-TJH Jig-off Tungsten Beads: These beads have an offset hole, creating an even more pronounced jigging motion. A pro-level choice to trigger picky fish.
• TYM-BH Brass Heads: Included for versatility. Use these when you need a slower sink rate in shallow water or for tying classic patterns where weight is less critical.

Part 2: The Skeleton - Tying Threads

We provide two essential thread sizes for maximum versatility.

• 140D Fly Tying Thread: Your workhorse thread. It's strong, lays relatively flat, and is perfect for building up bodies and securing materials without fear of breaking. Use for: General body construction, attaching legs and tails.
• 50D Fly Tying Thread: A finer, stronger-than-it-looks thread. Its thin diameter is crucial for creating slim, fast-sinking Perdigon bodies and for making subtle hotspots (collars) without adding bulk. Use for: Hotspots, small flies, quill bodies.

Part 3: The Body Shop - Form & Realism

Each material is in its own labeled pack.

• Rabbit Ice Dubbing: A blend of natural rabbit fur and subtle flash. Use for: Creating "buggy" thoraxes on Frenchies or the entire body of a Walt's Worm for a lifelike texture.
• Quill Body Wraps: The secret to slim, tapered, and beautifully segmented bodies. Use for: Building sleek Perdigon nymphs that slice through the water.
• Scud Back: A flexible, stretchy film. Use for: Laying over a dubbed body to form a durable, translucent "shell" that perfectly mimics scuds and sowbugs.

Part 4: The Triggers - Flash, Movement & Hotspots

The details that get the eat.

• Ribbing Wire: Adds segmentation, durability, and a flash of color. Use for: Protecting delicate quill bodies and creating triggering hotspots on the thorax.
• Krystal Flash: A classic attractor. Use for: Adding 1-2 strands in the tail to imitate an emerging shuck or to add a subtle sparkle to the body.
• Silicone Legs/Skirts: Provides incredible lifelike movement in the current. Use for: Legs on stonefly patterns, jig streamers, or as active tails.
• Squirmy Wormy Body Material: The ultimate "cheat code" fly. The soft, undulating action is simply irresistible to trout, especially in high or off-color water.

This kit doesn't just give you materials; it gives you a proven, organized system. Stop collecting clutter and start catching fish.
