Field Notes

This is a trout nymph pattern meant to imitate a green rock worm or larva. Fish it subsurface in rivers and streams where trout are feeding near the bottom or along seams and edges. Dead-drift it under an indicator or as part of a nymph rig.

Pros

  • Realistic larva profile for trout
  • Effective in freshwater nymph rigs
  • Dozen pack offers good value

Cons

  • Not a surface fly
  • Best use is limited to trout-focused freshwater situations
