Empty Pockets Jig fly pattern - Euro  nymph image

Description

The Empty Pockets are competition-style flies designed to drop quickly into feeding lanes, making them highly effective for tactical angling strategies. Keep several variations of color to match local insects. Hook size 12-16.

Pro Tip

Use the Empty Pockets Jig in clear or heavily fished waters where trout have seen it all. Pair it with a flashier fly in a two-fly rig to create an irresistible combination
