BH Stonefly Golden
Fly Details
BH Stonefly Golden
A benchmark in big bug imitations, the BH Stonefly Golden is a go-to pattern for targeting trout during stonefly hatches, especially the golden stonefly hatch. Its lifelike profile, weighted body, and long rubber legs create irresistible movement in the water - perfect for getting down deep in fast currents, pocket water, and rocky runs. A proven producer and a must-have in any serious angler's nymph box.

Presentation
This pattern fishes well year-round in a Nymph Rig, especially when presented near the bottom. It can be used as either the lead or dropper fly, but is most often tied on as the larger lead fly to help get your rig down and attract attention in deeper runs.
Fished in tandem with a highly visible dry fly acting as an indicator, this setup allows the nymph to suspend higher in the water column - ideal for targeting trout feeding just below the surface on emerging insects or drifting nymphs. A deadly combination during hatch transitions or in shallow riffles.
