- Description
The Answer to Deep, Picky Trout.
When trout are hugging the bottom and ignoring your standard patterns, it's time to deploy a specialist. The Hot Spot Tungsten Jig Nymph is not just another fly; it's a tactical tool engineered for one purpose: getting into the strike zone fast and converting fish.
Engineered for Performance
Built on a needle-sharp, barbless jig hook, this fly's primary advantage is its ability to bounce over rocks and debris where other flies would snag. Paired with a heavy tungsten bead head, it has an incredibly fast sink rate, cutting through the water column like a stone. This makes it a must-have for Euro nymphing, tight-line techniques, or fishing as a heavy anchor fly in an indicator rig.
The slim, Perdigon-style body offers minimal water resistance, while the wire ribbing adds a touch of segmentation and extreme durability. The final, crucial element is the vibrant hot spot collar. This isn't just for show; it's a proven trigger, acting as a focal point that draws the trout's eye and provokes an instinctual, aggressive bite.
How to Fish It
This is your go-to point fly in any Euro nymphing setup. It also excels under an indicator when you need to get your flies down deep, fast. Try it in pocket water, deep runs, and along seams where educated fish feed with confidence.
