BWO ARKANSAS TUNGSTEN
$2.25
BWO Arkansas Tungsten is a high-performance Blue Wing Olive nymph pattern with a tungsten bead for deep, fast drifts. For tailwaters and pressured trout.
Description
The BWO Arkansas Tungsten is a sleek, tactical nymph designed to imitate Blue Wing Olive mayfly nymphs in their most vulnerable form. With its slim profile, natural olive coloration, and tungsten bead head, this pattern sinks fast and stays in the feeding lane—making it perfect for tailwaters, technical freestone rivers, and spring creeks.
Inspired by Arkansas’s famed trout fisheries like the White and Little Red Rivers, this fly was designed to get down quickly in deep, fast runs where BWO activity is common year-round. The pattern features a tight, thread-wrapped body, a sparse tail, and just enough flash to trigger takes without spooking wary fish. The tungsten bead ensures it gets to the bottom without excessive weight elsewhere in your rig.
Fish it as part of a Euro nymph setup, on a double nymph rig, or below a dry during hatch transitions. It pairs beautifully with attractors like the Frenchie or Perdigon, or with small emergers like RS2s when trout are keyed in on Baetis movement.
Whether you’re matching a hatch in clear water or need a confidence fly during shoulder seasons, the BWO Arkansas Tungsten brings the ideal combination of realism, sink rate, and stealth for picky trout.
