Double Bubble Tungsten Egg Fly
The Double Bubble Tungsten Egg Fly is a simple, highly effective trout fly designed to get down fast and catch fish when it counts.
Built with a 3.8mm tungsten bead, this fly sinks quickly and stays near the bottom—right where trout are feeding. Whether you’re fishing deeper runs, seams, or slower water, it gets into the strike zone without delay.
The "double bubble" profile gives this fly a clean, natural egg shape. It stands out without looking unnatural, making it easy for trout to spot and commit.
Egg patterns are one of the most reliable flies in trout and salmon fishing. They imitate drifting fish eggs—an easy, high-protein meal that trout recognize right away. During spawning seasons, after, or anytime fish are feeding opportunistically, egg flies consistently produce.
Best way to fish it:
- Dead drift it like a nymph through runs and seams
- Fish it under an indicator, adjusting depth until you’re near the bottom
- Use it as a point fly in a euro nymphing setup to get down quickly
The key is simple: get it down and let it drift naturally.
When it works best:
- High or slightly stained water
- Cold days when fish stay deep
- During and after spawning periods
- When other patterns aren’t getting attention
