View full detailsThe Copper J (compare to a Copper John) is a combination of three very effective nymph patterns, the prince nymph, the brassie, and the pheasant tail. The pattern is very effective, and has become just as popular as any other nymph that we sell. The most common way to fish this nymph is to tie it on as a dropper fly, attached to a hopper pattern up front.This version is tied with a tungsten bead to get the fly deep quickly, and a jig hook, which will help prevent snagging the bottom of the river. Bead/Hook Sizes: #8, 10 & 12 hook: 3.8 mm Slotted Tungsten Bead #18 hook: 2.2 mm Slotted Tungsten Bead #14 hook: 3.3 mm Slotted Tungsten Bead #20 hook: 2.0 mm Slotted Tungsten Bead #16 hook: 2.8 mm Slotted Tungsten Bead #22 hook: 1.5 mm Slotted Tungsten Bead

View full detailsThe Frenchie is a go-to pattern for many anglers. Guess what? Add some gills and tie it on a bigger hook and the magic also works on lakes!If you fish this on stillwater, position a strike indicator above the fly so that the fly lies just over a weed bed. Midges swim upwards, so give a twitch to the line occasionally.

View full detailsThe old adage states "if your nymph isn't getting stuck, you're not fishing where you should be" The Jiggy series uses a 60 degree jig hook, allowing the angler to fish the fly directly on the bottom where nymphs live. Increased drifts without hanging up on the bottom is the biggest advantage this style nymph offers. This orientation also helps with a more positive hook up, typically pinning the fish top dead center allowing a faster and safer release.!
