Barrs Damsel Nymph Fly

Damselflies can be an interesting bug that elicits some of the most aggressive stillwater feeding around, and whenever these nymphs are crawling to the shore to get ready to emerge, fish feed on them with abandon...enter Barrs Damsel Nymph Fly. Barr's Damsel Nymph Fly was designed by John Barr after witnessing his first solid damselfly emergence--while the pattern he was using got the job done, it just wasn't good enough for John, so he took to the vise and invented Barr's Damsel Nymph Fly. It didn't take long before this fly got the positive feedback from the fish, and Barr's Damsel Nymph Fly became a staple in stillwater boxes all around the world.

While Barr's Damsel Nymph Fly was invented with stillwater situations in mind, this is a fly that can be fished anywhere damselfly nymphs are found, so don't be afraid to leave it in the box when hitting that slow-moving stream. Tied with a small marabou tail and buggy body, Barrs Damsel Nymph is best fished on a slow retrieve when in still water, and a dead drift technique with the occasional lift of your rod seems to work best in moving water. A staple damselfy nymph pattern, Barrs Damsel Nymph is a realistic option that's hard to beat.
