Patterns
✨ Prince Nymph ✨
A true royal in the world of trout flies 👑🐟. The Prince Nymph is a classic attractor pattern, known for its striking contrast of white goose biots, peacock herl body, and gold ribbing. Its bead head gives it just the right weight to get down into the strike zone quickly.
What makes it special?
It doesn’t perfectly imitate one insect — instead, it mimics many: stonefly nymphs, caddis pupae, and even mayfly nymphs. This versatility makes it a year-round confidence fly that fish can’t resist.
🎣 Pro Tip: Try different sizes depending on water conditions. Smaller sizes work well for finicky trout in clear water, while larger versions shine in faster, murkier runs.

🖤 The Black Woolly Bugger
Made by @HackleandHerls
A timeless classic and one of the most versatile flies ever tied. Imitating everything from leeches and baitfish to stoneflies and nymphs, this pattern has earned its place in every angler’s box. The black variation is especially deadly in stained water, low light, and when fish are chasing silhouettes.
Whether you’re targeting trout, bass, or even steelhead, the Woolly Bugger’s pulsing marabou tail and flowing hackle bring it to life with every strip. It’s not just a fly—it’s a confidence pattern.
📌 Pro tip: Fish it deep with weight for big takes, or strip it shallow for aggressive strikes.
