Description

The single most requested pattern that we didn't have Tungsten jig gets down now and doesn't hang on the rocks Imitates a stonefly or October caddis Bead Sizes #6 - 4.6mm #8 - 4.6mm #10 - 4.3mm #12 - 3.8mm

Field Notes

A tungsten jig-style stonefly nymph designed to get down quickly and stay in the strike zone. Fish it under an indicator or as part of a Euro/Czech nymph rig in deeper runs, seams, and pocket water where trout feed on stoneflies or October caddis. The heavy bead helps it sink fast and reduces hang-ups on rocks.

Pros

  • Tungsten bead helps it sink quickly
  • Jig-style profile reduces snags on rocks
  • Good stonefly or October caddis imitation

Cons

  • Heavier fly can be less subtle in shallow water
  • Best suited to subsurface presentations
