Description

The Hendrickson Nymph, originating from the famous Hendrickson hatch, is a classic mayfly nymph pattern crafted to imitate the natural in its subaquatic stage. This pattern is especially effective in early spring when Hendricksons are prevalent, drawing trout's attention with its lifelike design and movement.

Pro Tip

Swing the nymph at the end of the drift to mimic an ascending nymph moving toward the surface. This movement often triggers strikes from trout anticipating the hatch.
