Options
Quick take
Professionally-tied egg fly patterns with tungsten beads for nymphing spawning streams during trout season.
This tungsten bead egg fly is tied on a size 12 hook and aimed at trout, with the bead helping it sink toward the feeding zone. Its curved hook bend gives a convenient spot to attach a dropper fly. Trout anglers who nymph can fit it into a tandem rig with a small midge.
Best for
- Nymphing presentations in fast water during spring spawning seasons
- Tandem rigging with a small midge dropper for subtle presentations
- Trout streams where egg patterns work year-round but peak during spawn
Skip if
- You fish dry fly only
- You fish situations where trout avoid egg patterns
Strengths
- Tungsten beads get the fly to the feeding zone quickly in current
- Multiple color options allow matching locally spawning baitfish
- Mustad hook quality ensures sharpness and durability through multiple fish
Trade-offs

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
