The Brindle Bug is a classic Western salmonfly-nymph attractor: a yellow-and-brown variegated chenille body under heavy brown hackle, with a red tail flash. The mottled body and palmered hackle suggest a big stonefly nymph crawling the bottom.
A staple on Rocky Mountain freestone rivers, the Brindle Bug fishes deep and buggy where big trout hold during stonefly season and year-round.
Best for:
- Western salmonfly and stone water
- Deep freestone runs
- Bottom dead-drift nymphing
📌 Pro Tip: Weight it and drift it on the bottom in the weeks before the salmonfly hatch—the migrating nymphs are crawling shoreward, and a big buggy stone in their path gets eaten.
