WD40 - Olive

The WD40 Olive is a versatile and highly effective fly pattern designed to imitate small aquatic insects, such as midges and mayfly nymphs. This fly features a sleek olive body, which makes it a perfect match for various natural food sources in freshwater environments. Its understated color and realistic profile make it an excellent choice for fooling selective trout and other fish species in clear waters. The WD40 Olive is a must-have fly for any angler aiming to increase their catch rate with a proven, reliable pattern.

Constructed with durability and precision, the WD40 Olive is designed to withstand numerous strikes and maintain its effectiveness over time. The fly’s olive color blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings, making it particularly effective in clear and lightly stained waters. Its slender, realistic design ensures that it moves naturally in the water, closely mimicking the behavior of real nymphs and emergers. This pattern is especially productive during midge hatches and when small mayfly nymphs are prevalent.

To use the WD40 Olive effectively, fish it as a nymph or emerger. Cast it upstream and allow it to drift naturally with the current, ensuring it remains in the strike zone where fish are feeding. Using a strike indicator can help detect subtle bites, which are common with this type of pattern. The WD40 Olive is highly productive in both slow-moving streams and faster currents, making it a versatile addition to your fly box. Whether you're fishing in rivers, lakes, or ponds, the WD40 Olive is sure to enhance your success on the water and help you land more fish.
