Tied in the traditional Czech Nymph style, our Czech Mate pattern sports a tungsten bead buried inside of its head to get this fly down deep where trout like to lay along the bottom of the river. Tied to a curved scud hook, the Czech Mate is intended to roll along the bottom of the river, while additional flies tied higher up the leader do the bulk of the fish-catching work. Drifting deep = more fish!
This fly is perfect for use in either a Euro-Style/Czech Nymphing or Standard Nymphing rig.

More than an anchor
I just got into Czech nymphing and these flies make for great anchors. I have been surprised to catch nearly half of my fish on this fly (usually the cream color) instead of my droppers that matched the naturals in the water. Plenty of weight of this fly to take you deep into turbid flows and find the low lying fish.
