Field Notes

A PMD nymph pattern for trout fishing in freestones and tailwaters. Fish it as a dropper below a dry fly in a dry-dropper rig, especially when trout are feeding subsurface on mayfly nymphs.

Pros

  • Effective PMD imitation
  • Works well as a dry-dropper dropper
  • Suitable for freestones and tailwaters

Cons

  • Small fly can be hard to see
  • Best when PMDs are present or trout are keyed on mayflies
