Field Notes

A classic subsurface nymph for trout and other freshwater fish feeding on drifting insects. Fish it dead-drift under an indicator, as part of a nymph rig, or with a slow swing in riffles and seams.

Pros

  • Buggy profile that imitates a wide range of aquatic insects
  • Versatile in many water types and seasons
  • Effective as a point fly or dropper

Cons

  • Requires proper depth control to fish effectively
  • Can be less visible in very stained water
