This proven stonefly nymph is built for fast, deep water where standard patterns struggle to get down. A tungsten bead, lead underbody and slim dubbing profile make it sink quickly and stay in the strike zone, which is ideal when targeting strong trout in heavy current.
The Hudspeth Brown/Black colour gives a natural, mature Salmon Fly nymph look, with white gills and rubber legs adding extra trigger points without excess flash. Size 6 suits large stonefly hatches on powerful rivers, but also works year-round as a general big-food signal pattern. Durable materials handle repeated takes and rough bottoms, making it a reliable choice when one fly needs to cover most situations in fast water.
