Bill,
According to Roy Patrick's pattern book it was a "Carrot Nymph", maybe even
"Carot Nymph" (Roy wasn't too careful about spelling sometimes).  There were
some other interesting patterns like the Chukar Spider and the Dandy Green
Nymph that seem to have disappeared over the years.

Jim,
The Montana Bucktail was a pretty good pattern, as I recall it was sort of
forerunner of the Stimulator and could be fished wet or dry.  I used to use
it for sea-run cutthroat quite a bit.  I think I'll tie up a few.  Tom
Darling ran Roy's shop for Fay for a while after Roy's death and before he
opened Avid Angler, is that who you're referring to?
