The Lightning Bug – Green is a vibrant, attention-grabbing nymph that pairs proven mayfly imitation with bold flash to entice trout in all water conditions. With its iridescent green body, metallic beadhead, and streamlined silhouette, this fly sinks quickly and stands out as both a mayfly or midge mimic and an attractor pattern. It’s a versatile choice for prospecting riffles, pocket water, or deeper seams where trout hold tight and feed opportunistically.
The green flashback adds subtle variation and enhanced light reflection, making it effective in slightly off-color water or under cloudy skies. Ideal for tight-line or indicator nymphing, the Lightning Bug – Green is equally productive on freestones and tailwaters alike.
Best for:
- Fast water and drop-offs
- Two-fly or Euro nymphing rigs
- Mayfly, baetis, or general attractor use
📌 Pro Tip: Pair this fly with a more natural trailing nymph like a Pheasant Tail or Frenchie—its flash draws fish in, while the dropper closes the deal.
