Stonefly & Salmonfly Nymphs
Stonefly and Salmonfly Nymphs are among the most important large aquatic insects found in rivers and streams throughout North America. These heavily weighted, high-protein food sources are a staple for trout, steelhead, and other gamefish year-round, making them essential patterns for any serious nymph angler.
Our Stonefly & Salmonfly Nymph collection features proven fish-catching patterns designed to imitate everything from smaller dark stoneflies to the large Salmonflies commonly found in western rivers. These flies are highly effective when fished deep along rocky bottoms, under indicators, through pocket water, riffles, and faster current seams.
Whether targeting aggressive trout during runoff or fishing deep during colder months, Stonefly and Salmonfly Nymphs consistently produce strikes from larger fish looking for substantial meals.
