Fish Food

When you need an egg pattern to stand out in stained or dirty water, this is one that will do it. So effective fished below weight or as a dropper, these egg flies offer a realistic veil over a bright orange eye. Simple, but productive egg flies. Color, Bright Orange. Flies available in sizes: 8, 10.

"It is a SUPER EGG!!!! Can't see fish? Don't know what to tie on? Try this tasty treat and you will feel tugs - NOT the bottom! An outstanding egg pattern that does not fail! A+++"

Egg On, February 21, 2008
By: flyfishingmack from The Mountains, NC

"This is the perfect fly to catch a ton of fish on. No matter the time of day or time of year fish are going to eat this veiled egg pattern. You honestly couldn't catch anymore fish if you were to use corn."

"This pattern is DEADLY for trout and steelhead in high, stained water. Fish it under an indicator with a lot of lead to get it down. FISH ON!"

"Great fly for fishing high, stained water. This fly has all the necessary components to fool even the most selective of steelhead and trout. Hint: try this one on Appalachian high mountain stream trout. You'll be glad you did!"
