Description

Still the #1 nymph in the world and with good reason. Buggy, flashy, suggestive of a plethora of nymphs. The more it is fished the buggier it gets. When in doubt fish a Hare's Ear.

Field Notes

A classic subsurface trout fly that imitates a wide range of aquatic nymphs and other buggy prey. Fish it dead-drift under an indicator, as part of a nymph rig, or with a slow lift-and-drop presentation in riffles, seams, and pocket water.

Pros

  • Highly versatile mayfly/nymph imitation
  • Effective in many water types and conditions
  • Simple, proven pattern for trout

Cons

  • Can be less specific than a dedicated hatch match
  • Small fly can be hard to see without an indicator
