Orvis Josh’S Wiggle Hellgrammite | Nymphs

This Smallmouth Fly Was Created For Bass Fishing The New River And James River, But Will Work Anywhere Smallies And Hellgrammites Are Present. The Smallies Love Hellgrammites; However, Most Hellgrammite Flies Don’T Have The Correct Action. This Fly Is Segmented With A Rubber Tail For Durability. Bass Tend To Tear Off Tails Made Of Biots Or Ostrich Herl. Hackle Is Used For The Rear Section Because Hellgrammites Have A Bunch Of Small Tightly Spaced Legs In The Rear 2/3 Of Their Body. The Front Legs Are Rubber Because Hellgrammites Have Only A Few Larger, Loosely Spaced Legs In The Front 1/3 Of Their Body. This Approach To The Hooks Gives The Obvious Differentiation The Hellgrammite Has Between The Rear 2/3 And Front 1/3 Of Its Body. Used With A Dead Drift It Drives Smallies Crazy And It Has Also Caught Largemouth, Red Eyes, Musky, And Trout.

Size 8.
