Tungsten Jig Frenchie
Both the varsity quarterback and the 2018 Prom King, the Tungsten Jig Frenchie Nymph is the over-achieving, flashy big brother of the pheasant tail nymph. While tipped with the standard pheasant tail fiber abdomen and tail, the Frenchie has a fluorescent orange or pink thorax that make it a trout magnet! This undisputed killer pattern can be fished year-round and is a favorite in competitive fly fishing circles. The Frenchie nymph really turns up the heat when fished during the spawns in the Spring and Fall as trout mistake the hot-collar as an egg.
This fly pattern is perfect for use in euro nymphing / czech nymphing or traditional nymphing rigs.
