Quick take
Beaded San Juan worm nymphs designed to replicate aquatic worms and sink quickly.
This is a dozen San Juan worm flies, three each of four bead patterns, with one pattern carrying a double bead. The beads pull the flies down quickly, which suits dropper setups such as Euro rigs. Trout are the main target, and the worm profile also works for bass, panfish, salmon and steelhead. Hook size 10.

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.
