What It Imitates: Caddis pupae and emerging adults trapped just below the surface — exactly the stage when trout feed most aggressively.

Type: Dry Fly / Emerger

Pros (Why You’ll Love It): 

• Sparse design sinks just under the film, mimicking vulnerable emerging caddis
• Soft, natural profile fools picky trout that ignore high-floating dries
• Super versatile — can be fished alone or dropped under a dry
• A killer pattern during heavy caddis hatches when fish focus on emergers

Best Ways to Fish It: Fish it as one of your flies on a double nymph rig, or as your smaller fly in a double dry fly rig (we recommend the Puff Caddis).

Where & When to Use: Perfect in slower seams, flats, and tailouts during caddis hatches, especially in summer when caddis are most active. Deadly on pressured water where trout get selective.

Extra Tip(s): Try fishing it behind a high-floating dry like an Elk Hair Caddis — your dry acts as a subtle indicator, and trout often hit the emerger just below it.

What’s in the Pack: 3x Half-Baked Caddis tied on premium hooks.

What It Imitates: Mayfly emergers or adults riding low in the surface film — especially deadly during BWO, PMD, and other small mayfly hatches.

Type: Dry Fly / Emerger

Pros (Why You’ll Love It): 

• Sparkle shuck tail imitates the trailing exoskeleton of a freshly hatched adult
• Rides low in the film, just like the naturals trout target first
• Sparse, realistic profile fools even picky, hatch-focused fish
• A must-have for technical water and tough hatch-matching days

Best Ways to Fish It: Fish it as one of your flies on a double nymph rig, or as your smaller fly in a double dry fly rig (we recommend the Parachute PMD or Parachute BWO).

Where & When to Use: Perfect in slower seams, flats, and tailouts during mayfly hatches, especially in summer when mayflies are most active. Deadly on pressured water where trout get selective.

Extra Tip(s): Try fishing it behind a high-floating dry like an Parachute Adams — your dry acts as a subtle indicator, and trout often hit the emerger just below it.

What It Imitates: A slim, ultra-natural mayfly or midge emerger — exactly what trout target just below the surface during hatches.

Type: Nymph / Emerger

Pros (Why You’ll Love It): 

• Sparse, natural profile fools even the pickiest trout on technical water
• Sits just below the film where emerging bugs get crushed
• Super versatile — works as a straight nymph, an emerger, or even in a dry-dropper rig
• A must-have for spring and fall hatches, but deadly year-round

Best Ways to Fish It: Fish it as one of your flies on a double nymph rig, or in a dry-dropper rig under a dry fly (we recommend the Parachute Adams).

Where & When to Use: Best in riffles, soft seams, and slower runs from spring through fall, especially when mayflies or midges are hatching and trout are keyed in on emerging insects.

Extra Tip(s): On tough, slow-moving flats, an unweighted nymph drifts more naturally than a heavy fly — perfect for fooling picky fish in clear water.

What’s in the Pack: 3x RS2s tied on premium hooks.

What It Imitates: A slim, flashy attractor nymph that hints at small mayfly or midge larvae — a general snack trout snack on all day long.

Type: Nymph

Pros (Why You’ll Love It): 

• Slim pheasant tail body gives it a super natural mayfly nymph look
• Peacock herl collar adds just the right buggy flash to fool selective trout
• Short poly yarn wing acts like a hint of an emerging wingcase — triggers eats during hatches
• A proven pattern that’s crushed fish for decades

Best Ways to Fish It: Fish it as one of your flies on a double nymph rig, or in a dry-dropper rig under a dry fly (we recommend the Parachute Adams).

Where & When to Use: Perfect for riffles, runs, and pools any time of year. It’s one of those patterns that’s almost always worth tying on, especially when fish aren’t locked onto a specific hatch.

Extra Tip(s): Pairs perfectly with a larger, flashier nymph — the Shop Vac’s more subtle profile often seals the deal when trout shy away from the big stuff.

What’s in the Pack: 3x Shop Vacs tied on premium hooks with tungsten beads.

What It Imitates: An emerging mayfly, caddis, or even drowned terrestrial — basically anything small and buggy that’s moving just under the surface.

Type: Nymph

Pros (Why You’ll Love It): 

• Sparse, buggy body with flowing partridge feathers that breathe and pulse in the current
• Ultra-versatile — imitates a huge range of insects from emergers to drowned adults
• Deadly on picky trout that ignore standard nymphs or dries
• Simple, durable design that holds up fish after fish

Best Ways to Fish It: Fish it as one of your flies on a double nymph rig, or in a dry-dropper rig under a bigger dry fly (we recommend the Parachute Adams).

Where & When to Use: Perfect from spring through fall in riffles, soft seams, and tailouts. Especially effective during hatches when fish key in on emerging insects just under the film.

Extra Tip(s): Try fishing it behind a dry fly on a short tag — the soft hackle drifts just under the surface like a struggling emerger, which often convinces trout that wouldn’t take your dry.

What It Imitates: Slim-profile mayfly nymphs about to emerge — that split back mimics the wing case cracking open, which trout key in on when they’re eating bugs just before they hatch.

Type: Nymph / Emerger

Pros (Why You’ll Love It): 

• Split-back design perfectly imitates emerging mayflies
• Slim body gets down fast and drifts naturally
• Bright yellow color grabs fish’s attention
  
• Deadly on pressured fish that have seen "standard" nymphs all day

Best Ways to Fish It: Fish it as one of your flies on a double nymph rig, or in a dry-dropper rig under a dry fly (we recommend the Parachute Adams).

Where & When to Use: Best in riffles, soft seams, and slower runs from spring through fall, especially when mayflies are hatching and trout are keyed in on emerging insects.

Extra Tip(s): On tough, slow-moving flats, an unweighted nymph drifts more naturally than a heavy fly — perfect for fooling picky fish in clear water.
