Field Notes

Fish this as a subsurface nymph imitation for trout in streams, rivers, or stillwaters where damselfly nymphs are present. It works well on a dead drift under an indicator or as part of a nymph rig, especially near weed edges and slow-to-moderate water.

Pros

  • Realistic damsel nymph profile
  • Barbless hook for easier release
  • Versatile for trout nymph rigs

Cons

  • Small profile may be hard to see at distance
  • Best when fish are keyed on nymphs or damselflies
