20 Incher
The 20 Incher Stonefly Nymph is one of the greatest stonefly nymphs ever created. Now considered a "classic" fly, but do not underestimate it fishiness just because of it's age. The twenty incher is a very versatile fly and imitates a wide range of insects. It can be tied large or small, light or heavy (with a tungsten bead...or 2 for that matter!). This is another one of the must have flies in your flybox. So get tying!
