Product information "Fulling Mill Nymph - Copper John"

The English manufacturer Fulling Mill is known for modern flies of outstanding quality - designed by well-known fly tyers and tied from the best materials!

The Copper John is a well-known nymph that everyone has fished - and rightly so. Nymph fishing is becoming more and more popular, the number of patterns is growing daily and the Copper John is being used less and less. But this is precisely a mistake, whether on a lowland river or a high alpine mountain stream as a stonefly imitation, the Copper John is used in almost every river in the world and is very successful there. It is not without reason that the pattern has not changed for decades - never change a winning nymph!

The typical Copper John nymph is tied with a copper wire, which represents the body up to the thorax. This gives the fly a high dead weight and low buoyancy, perfect for fast changing currents and deep bends.

Hook size: 14
