Field Notes

A trout nymph for faster water, especially when fish are feeding on olive nymphs or caddis. Drift it dead-drift through riffles, runs, and pocket water where trout and grayling are holding near the bottom.

Pros

  • Effective in faster water
  • Barbless hook is fish-friendly
  • Good match for trout and grayling

Cons

  • Not ideal for surface-feeding fish
  • Small fly can be hard to see and handle
