Honey Badger Jig fly pattern - Euro  nymph image

Description

The Honey Badger Jig is a two-toned Euro-nymph pattern designed to replicate the natural darkening of a mayfly nymph's wing case before emergence. Its subtle segmentation and lifelike appearance make it a deadly option for targeting selective trout. The pattern's weighted jig design ensures it rides hook-up, minimizing snags and maximizing effectiveness in rocky streams. Hook Size 14-20

Pro Tip

Drift the Honey Badger Jig in slower runs or at the tail end of pools where mayfly nymphs gather before hatching.
