The English manufacturer Fulling Mill is known for modern flies in outstanding quality - designed by well-known fly tyers and tied from the best materials!
The Croston's Dark Olive Quill Barbless is a modern jig-style nymph typically used in Euro nymphing. Thanks to its jig hook and a heavy tungsten bead, it reaches the fishy zone quickly - even in strong current. The slim, natural Quill body in combination with a realistic collar provides a natural look and a universal silhouette. Thus, it is the right choice in many situations. With its natural, realistic look, it is an absolute all-around pattern, especially in clear waters, on bright days and on skittish fish.
In short, this modern nymph will not only convince you, but also the fish - both grayling and trout, barbel and Co! The perfect blend between a slim profile, natural silhouette and appropriate weighting to effectively offer the fly exactly where the fish feed.
Tip: These nymphs are most effectively fished on long (10 ft. or 11 ft.) and sensitive (#2 or #3) rods with a stretched, thin leader.
Details:
- Tungsten bead: 3.3 mm (hook size #14), 2.8 mm (hook size #16) and 2.4 mm (hook size #18).
- Without barb (barbless)
