About the Nuclear Nymph Trout Fly

Nuclear Nymph does not particularly imitate anything, but rather suggests something edible to the fish. It works well in all types of freshwater for both trout and grayling fished as prospecting pattern moved fairly quickly using a sink and draw or fast figure of eight technique.

Expert Tip:

Several years ago I had the pleasure of attending a workshop run by that great American fly tyer (my good friend) Chris Helm. One of the flies he demonstrated gave me the idea for the nuclear nymph.
