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