I like nothing more than a simple buggy looking nymph that can replicate many things. I like this fly on the TMC 2499 because of it’s serious holding power and it really gives the fly a nice caddis pupa/shrimp profile. The white bead against the red floss hot spot gives this fly a color contrast that helps act as a trigger point. This is my #1 confidence fly wherever I happen to be fishing.
