Back Flop Jig – Tungsten – Umpqua (Barbless)
Fishing streamers on Euro Nymphing leaders is a technique that my fly fishing team USA mates and I have been practicing for over a decade now. In certain situations, it has produced some of the most ridiculous catch rates that I have seen when standard nymphing approaches have been slow. Designed by Devin Olsen

This jig has significantly improved my catch rate in slow currents. The barbless design makes it easy to retrieve fish without damaging the hook. I’ve used it in multiple streams and it consistently performs well.

Great addition to my Euro Nymphing setup. The tungsten weight keeps it stable in the water, and the barbless feature makes it safer for fish. Works best when paired with a streamer.
