The Lightning Bug Pink is a vibrant and highly visible nymph pattern designed to imitate small aquatic insects while doubling as an effective attractor fly. Its flashback body and bright pink coloration make it ideal for stained water, overcast days, and deep pools where extra visibility is key to getting a trouts attention. This pattern excels in fast water and pocket water where trout must react quickly to flashy, moving prey.

Tied with a flashy synthetic body, wire ribbing, and beadhead for added weight, the Pink Lightning Bug sinks rapidly and provides just the right amount of shimmer to simulate mayfly nymphs, midges, or even eggs. Its a perfect choice for year-round fishing, especially during high flows or in heavily pressured waters where subtle patterns go ignored.

To fish the Lightning Bug Pink effectively, dead drift it through seams, riffles, and plunge pools using either a tight-line or indicator nymphing setup. It works especially well as a dropper fly beneath a dry or as a trailer in a two-nymph rig. The flash and color combo make it a confidence pattern when visibility is limited or fish are responding to bright cues.
