Field Notes

Use this egg pattern when trout or other migratory fish are feeding on drifting eggs, especially in and below spawning areas. It is typically fished dead-drift under an indicator or as part of a nymph rig in cold, clear water or moderate current.

Pros

  • Simple, effective imitation of fish eggs
  • Good choice for migratory fish and spawning-season conditions
  • Easy to fish in a nymph rig

Cons

  • Can be less effective away from spawning periods
  • Small profile may be hard to see in dirty water
