I have never caught a single fish on the Nomad! I remember buying a selection of flies when I first started fishing and it contained a few of these kinds of patterns so the fly is a good age. Kyle Courtney requested a reboot of the fly so I have conjured up this. I might even give it a swim!
Are there any other old patterns that you think could do with a reboot? Let me know in the comments section below.
