Field Notes

These are small trout nymph patterns meant to imitate midges and scuds, especially in rivers below dams and spring creeks. Fish them under an indicator or as a dropper beneath a dry fly with light tippet for selective trout feeding on tiny insects.

Pros

  • Effective on selective trout in clear, pressured water
  • Small sizes suit midge and scud hatches
  • Works well as an indicator nymph or dropper

Cons

  • Requires light tippet and careful presentation
  • Small flies can be hard to see and detect strikes
