My #1 go-to nymph is the Aurora Nymph. It is the best nymph I have ever fished. I use only tungsten beads to get the fly to depth faster. The opal tinsel body and wing case give it an eerie glow. The micro round rubber legs and peacock thorax round out the wonderful pattern.
When I swing wet flies, I always use two. One is always the Tungsten Bead Soft Hackle Dark. It is a very buggy looking fly. The turkey tail, wrapped abdomen is glued to the thread covered hook and is as durable as dubbing. The bead is set back from the hook eye and covered in a shroud of peacock dubbing, and a Hungarian Partridge hackle really give it life. The deeper you fish your wet flies, the fewer fish you will catch, but the size goes up dramatically. You can fish it shallow or deep.
