Red Quill Jig Barbless Frenchie
Red Quill Jig Barbless Frenchie nymph is tied based on French types of micro nymphs. This model of nymph is delicate and discrete and is a perfect nymph for rivers with high fishing pressure. This pattern is tied on a small barbless jig hook using a black tungsten bead and red peacock quills. It is highly effective for fishing grayling and big brown trout. Coated with UV resin to increase the durability and resistance to fish bites. The barbless jig hook minimizes snags and the tungsten bead gives it extra weight.
