48 Tungsten Nymphs $42.00
Tungsten Nymph Patterns. Very Good Price Per Bug!!
This a great Package for common size, profile and nymph colours. You'll cover both caddis and mayfly's with these hares ears. The Lighting Bugs, along with the Frenchie's are good searching and attractor patterns. These are staples in my box all year long and offered in an assortment that provides several options.

Nymph Presentations and Rigging
Pheasant Tails are a classic bug that imitate almost anything. Caddis Pupa, a variety of Mayfly Nymphs and in larger sizes even Stone, and Damsel Fly Nymphs. Actually, you could catch fish if this was the only nymph you ever used.
Prince Nymph. Another Classic. I'll use this as a small stone in the summer, or a backswimmer/boatman in the fall. Otherwise I will randomly throw it on if things are slow.
Brown Hare's Ear. My absolute favourite Caddis Pupa imitation. If I'm nymphing with guests during May-July during peak Caddis time on the Bow, I have one of these on the rig. The material becomes dark when wet and it just produces fish for us.
Lightning Bugs. This is one of those goofy attractor patterns I like on high cloud days. It's got flash and really will work well at depth. Fish seem to respond to it in clear water and I often have it on in later summer months or early fall.
Perdigon patterns are great slim line bugs that help you get down in the zone right away. I like the Brown with green flash body and use it often. However, I really believe it's just the design getting these guys where you need them quickly that makes them deadly. I like these on warmer days when I need to get right down to the cooler water and stay down there for entire drift. Typically they are the point fly in the rig.
Frenchie. This is another low profile buggy attractor pattern that seems to imitate whatever I need it to. I always have plenty of rust bodies with a copper collar.
Olive Hare's Ear. A great Caddis Larva imitation and in smaller sizes is effective as a BWO nymph. It's just buggy and when colour matters, olive is a staple on the Bow and surrounding creeks.
Roza's Hare's Ear. I like this one a lot. I use it as an attractor pattern and find it can be effective any time of year. I have good success during active PMD and Caddis hatches with this one. It's just buggy and I like it (and sell it) with a coffee bead.
I love tungsten in the big water and use primarily coffee beads, other than the lighting bugs.
