Nymphs and Emergers
Fish Eat Nymphs and Emergers because they are a Plentiful Food Source
Nymphs are immature insects that live underwater and are an important food source for many species of fish, including trout and other gamefish. Emergers are insects that are transitioning from the nymph to the adult stage and imitate insects such as midges, mayflies, and caddis. They are particularly vulnerable to predatory fish at this stage.
In general, nymphs are most active and available as a food source during the spring and fall, when many insects are hatching. Emergers are usually most abundant during the warmer months when insects are emerging from their nymphal stage.
Nymph flies are best fished along the bottom and emergers in the middle to the upper part of the water column.
Whenever possible, try to match the hatch by selecting flies that imitate the lifecycle and behavior of insects in your area. Understanding the feeding habits of local fish and what they are feeding on will help you catch more fish.
Looking for Top-Water Flies to Accompany You Frenchie?
Try our Foam Spider
A foam spider fly’s profile and movement imitate a spider in the water. Spiders are part of the diet of many fish species, especially those that feed on the surface, such as bluegill and bass. The appearance and movement of a spider fly can mimic that of a real spider and trigger the predatory instincts of fish, causing them to strike and eat the fly. Additionally, the topwater presentation of a spider fly is highly visible and attractive to shallow-water fish. In our experience, the foam spider is an effective fly for the following fish: Bluegill, Bass (both largemouth bass and smallmouth bass), Trout (specifically brook and rainbow trout), and Panfish (such as Crappie and perch).
What Type of Fly is the Foam Spider?
This foam spider fly is a dry fly pattern. Dry flies are designed to float on the water’s surface, simulating an adult insect or other type of food source for fish. The foam material gives the fly buoyancy guaranteeing that it will always float.
