The Black Gold Ribbed Hare’s Ear is a darker, high-contrast twist on one of the most proven nymphs in fly fishing. While the traditional Hare’s Ear uses natural dubbing, this black variation offers a bold silhouette that excels in off-color water, low light, and deeper runs where visibility matters. The buggy dubbing, paired with the signature gold ribbing, creates lifelike segmentation and subtle flash—imitating a wide range of mayfly nymphs, caddis larvae, and general aquatic insects.
This pattern shines as both a hatch-matcher and a searching nymph. Its impressionistic profile and durable construction allow it to perform across seasons and water types, from freestone riffles to technical tailwaters. Whether fished alone or paired with a smaller dropper, the Gold Ribbed Hare’s Ear - Black remains a dependable producer when trout are feeding subsurface.
Best for:
- Stained or low-light conditions where a darker silhouette excels
- Matching mayfly nymphs, caddis larvae, or general forage
- Riffles, pocket water, and medium-depth runs
📌 Pro Tip: Try this fly after a rainstorm—its dark profile and gold ribbing stand out perfectly in slightly dirty water where trout rely on contrast.
