Seductive Dragon

The Seductive Dragon by RIO is an exceptional dragonfly nymph imitation designed for maximum effectiveness. Its unique design features long, wispy materials surrounding the rear of the fly, creating lifelike movement when twitched or stripped through the water. This dynamic action mimics a swimming dragonfly nymph, making it irresistible to trout, bass, and even carp. Versatile and highly effective, the Seductive Dragon is a must-have pattern for anglers targeting predatory fish in lakes, ponds, or slow-moving rivers.

Fish the Seductive Dragon with a slow, erratic retrieve to imitate the darting and pausing motion of a dragonfly nymph. Let the fly sink to the desired depth before beginning your retrieve, and focus on areas near vegetation, drop-offs, or submerged logs where dragonfly nymphs are abundant. Use a loop knot for more natural movement, and don’t hesitate to pause between strips—many strikes occur on the pause as the fly hovers. Adjust your leader length for deeper presentations, especially when targeting larger bass or carp.
