Purple Reign fly pattern - Baetis nymph image

Description

The Purple Reign, an exclusive design by Yakoda Supply, is a stripped-down variation of Lance Egan’s Rainbow Warrior with a highly flashy body that catches the attention of trout year-round. This fly doesn’t mimic any one particular insect but instead represents a midge larva or mayfly nymph with its inherent "bugginess" and vibrant purple color, which seems to drive trout crazy. Its simple design and eye-catching color make it an irresistible choice for fish, whether fished in slow-moving or faster waters.

Pro Tip

Use Year-Round: The Purple Reign is effective throughout the year, making it a versatile pattern in any angler’s fly box. Fish it in cold and warm waters, as it works both as a point fly on a nymph rig or as a dropper beneath a dry fly, ensuring success no matter the season.
