Copper John - Red

The Copper John Red is a highly effective and versatile fly pattern known for its ability to attract a wide range of fish species, particularly trout. This nymph pattern features a vibrant red body made of copper wire, combined with a peacock herl thorax and white biot wings. The beadhead adds weight, ensuring the fly sinks quickly to the desired depth. The Copper John Red's lifelike profile and striking coloration make it an essential addition to any angler's fly box.

Crafted with high-quality materials, the Copper John Red is built for durability and performance. The copper wire body provides a realistic segmented appearance and adds a subtle shine that catches the light, while the peacock herl thorax and white biot wings enhance the fly's natural appeal. The beadhead ensures that the fly gets down to the strike zone quickly, making it particularly effective in fast-moving currents and deep pools.

To use the Copper John Red effectively, fish it as a nymph. Cast it upstream or across the current, allowing it to drift naturally with the flow. The added weight from the beadhead helps keep the fly close to the bottom, where nymphs are typically found. Using a strike indicator can help detect subtle bites, which are common with this type of pattern. The Copper John Red is highly productive in both slow-moving streams and faster currents, making it a versatile option for various fishing environments
