SLIM BAETIS DOUBLE TUNGSTEN

Description

Slim Baetis Double Tungsten – a fast-sinking, ultra-slim mayfly nymph

The Slim Baetis Double Tungsten is a high-performance nymph pattern designed to get down fast and stay in the zone, even in heavy current. Tied with an ultra-slim profile and two tungsten beads, these fly fishing flies imitate Baetis (Blue Wing Olive) nymphs with deadly precision. Its compact shape, subtle flash, and extra weight make it a go-to choice for technical Euro-nymphing and deep water presentations where standard flies can’t keep up.

Design / Features

The Slim Baetis Double Tungsten features a slender, segmented body that cuts efficiently through fast water, allowing for a natural, drag-free drift. The double tungsten bead construction provides exceptional sink rates without adding unnecessary bulk, keeping the silhouette clean and realistic. A fine ribbing and sparse tail create lifelike detail, while the durable materials hold up against repeated takes in tough conditions.

When & Where to Use

The Slim Baetis Double Tungsten excels in freestones, tailwaters, and pocket water where quick depth and precision are key. It’s especially effective during spring and fall Baetis hatches, or as a searching pattern when trout are feeding subsurface. Ideal for Euro-nymphing, tight-line setups, or as the anchor fly in a two-fly rig.
