Stillwater Nymph - Olive

Stillwater Nymph — Olive

The Olive Stillwater Nymph is a versatile, general-purpose pattern built for lakes, reservoirs, and any stillwater where trout are feeding subsurface on aquatic nymphs and invertebrates. Olive is the most natural and universally effective color for stillwater nymphing — it blends with aquatic vegetation and matches a wide range of the invertebrates that stillwater trout feed on throughout the season. Fish it on a slow retrieve through weed beds and drop-offs, or hang it under an indicator and let the subtle movement of the water do the work.
