Quick take
Glo bug egg flies in three high-visibility colors for steelhead and salmon fishing.
A 30-piece set of egg-pattern flies tied on size 8 hooks, split evenly across red, orange and fluorescent green. Each fly runs about 1.5 inches long and weighs roughly 0.01 oz. It suits anglers fishing glo bug patterns for steelhead who want a few egg colors to rotate through.
Best for
- Steelhead fishing in fall and winter
- Salmon egg pattern fishing
- Bright water conditions where visibility aids strike
Skip if
- You fish clear water where eggs are rare
- You target summer steelhead instead of fall runs
Strengths
- Three colors provide options in different water clarity
- Glo bug materials float high and are easily visible
- High quantity provides many trials on extended trips
Trade-offs
- Glo bugs absorb water and require frequent drying
- Not effective outside egg season or in clear water without egg presence
- Fluorescent materials may spook fish in very clear conditions

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.
