Pink Squirrel Nymph
LFT-N103.16Description
The Pink Squirrel was developed in the early 2000s by John Bethke of Westby, Wisconsin, aiming not to imitate any specific natural insect but to create a pattern that catches fish almost all the time. It's now one of the most popular flies in the Driftless Area of the American Midwest.
The combination of shaggy hare's-ear dubbing, a gold bead, and sparkly pink dubbing creates a heavy, eye-catching pattern that sinks quickly to the bottom. The Pink Squirrel is fished dead-drift and is successful for trout as well as grayling.
Fair Trade, Full Circle
Your flies are tied fairly, with the best materials, on a barbless hook. "Fliegenfischen mit Herz" is building a base for women in Nairobi. The women there own and run the tying workshop themselves, giving them economic independence, pride in their craft, and joy in their customers. Let's work together toward a more balanced world.
