- caddis larvae · mayfly nymphs · anchor fly
A heavy, streamlined Euro nymph with a smooth thread body under UV resin and a large tungsten bead. Designed as a pure anchor fly to get lighter droppers into the strike zone in fast, deep water. Its minimal profile reduces drag while its weight ensures constant bottom contact.
Recipe
This is one dressing. Tie it in other colors to match the hatch in front of you.
