I was fishing the slippery rock creek this weekend and saw dragonfly nymphs shells on almost every rock. Anyone have a good pattery to tie them? The easier the better for me, but I'll take any suggestions. Pics are also appreciated!

I think an olive wooleybugger would do nicely. But here are some specific patterns

Try the rubber legged dragon... one of my personal favorites for everything down here in GA...
I personally caught my biggest stocked trout on one of these guys, along with HUGE bluegill. I know of two guys that have caught bass over 4lbs on them too... http://www.flyfishga.com/rl_dragon.htm

I'll almost second Pad's suggestion...one change. Add dumbell or chain eyes to the bugger. You could give it a shell back or not but the eyes will make a difference. Keep the tail short too.
