The Umpqua Fly Mopsicle Horodysky Tungsten is a modern twist on the Mop Fly, built for anglers who want a fast-sinking and highly visible nymph pattern. The heavy tungsten bead gets the fly down quickly into the feeding zone, even in faster currents or deeper pools, helping you stay in contact with the bottom where fish often hold.
The plush mop-style body creates a lifelike, pulsing movement that appeals strongly to trout, grayling and various panfish. Fished under an indicator, as part of a Euro nymphing set-up, or simply on a long leader, this pattern is easy to control and detect takes with.
The Tan and Chartreuse colours give you two proven attractor options: natural and subtle, or bright and attention-grabbing, allowing you to adapt to changing water clarity and light conditions. Tied on a strong size 8 hook, it is suitable for larger fish and for use in both rivers and stillwaters.
