Description
The Red Dart is a nymph-style fly designed by Lance Egan in 2011 for the World Fly Fishing Championships in Bolzano, Italy. It combines elements from the Red Tag and Prince Nymph patterns, featuring a red tail and a peacock body. The addition of a fluorescent pink hotspot behind the bead enhances its visibility, making it an effective attractor pattern for various trout species. Hook size 14-16
Pro Tip
In high-water conditions, fish the Red Dart near the banks where trout often seek refuge from strong currents.
