Description

You will need the following materials in order to tie the NYAP Pro:

  1. NYAP Pro bodies
  2. Grip 21711NSL or similar
  3. White Strung Saddle Hackle
  4. Crystal Flash or Flashabou (any colour you desire)
  5. Red Crystal or Fritz Chenille
  6. Contact Adhesive (Do not use Super Glue)
  7. A very sharp razor blade

 

Notes:

  1. I like to keep this fly as simple as possible without any fancy stuff in the tail.  I tie 6 to 8 hackles in the tail with only a couple of strands of crystal flash.  It can however also be tied with synthetic fiber such as Supreme Hair
  2. I prefer to tie these flies with a matching colour thread suitable for saltwater flies
