Miller Simple Jig Nymph fly pattern - Euro  nymph image

Description

The Miller Simple Jig Nymph is a minimalist Euro-style anchor fly built around efficiency, sink rate, and a clean silhouette that imitates a wide range of small mayfly and caddis nymphs. Its strength comes from the combination of a jig hook, a tungsten bead, and a sparse dubbed body that drops quickly into the strike zone and rides hook-point up, reducing snags and improving hookup quality. Designed to be tied fast and fished hard.

Pro Tip

Fish the Miller Simple Jig Nymph with a micro-check—a subtle, single-inch hesitation in the drift. That momentary stall makes the jig pivot and flutter upward before dropping again, perfectly imitating an invertebrate kicked loose from the rocks.
