Lightning Bug Tungsten - Green

Lightning Bug Tungsten – Green

The Lightning Bug Tungsten - Green is a high-flash attractor nymph that gets down fast and triggers strikes when trout are keyed on flashy, bright patterns. The green body with metallic flash imitates the iridescent sheen of a variety of aquatic invertebrates, while the tungsten bead provides the weight needed to cut through the current and reach the strike zone quickly. A standout pattern in clear water and bright conditions, and a reliable producer year-round on tailwaters and freestone rivers alike.
