Description

The Duracell Nymph, created by Scottish angler Craig McDonald, is a highly effective Euro-style jig pattern renowned for its ability to attract trout and grayling. Its distinctive combination of a UV brown Ice Dub body, red wire ribbing, and a soft CDC collar provides a lifelike appearance and enticing movement in the water. The tungsten bead ensures the fly sinks rapidly, making it ideal for reaching deep feeding zones.

Pro Tip

Fish the Duracell Nymph as the point fly in a Euro-nymphing setup to effectively probe deep runs and pockets where fish are holding. Its weighted design allows it to get down quickly, while the CDC collar adds subtle movement to entice strikes.
