The San Juan Worm Tan is a subtle, natural-colored version of the classic worm pattern, ideal for clear water and pressured trout. Designed to imitate aquatic worms and annelids, its a staple for anglers fishing tailwaters, spring creeks, or after rain events that dislodge invertebrates from the streambed. The tan coloration blends in seamlessly with the natural river environment, making it perfect for fooling picky fish during low flows or when trout are dialed in on realistic food sources.

Tied with ultra-soft chenille on a curved hook, the Tan San Juan Worm delivers a lifelike profile and movement that trout find irresistible. Its simplicity and effectiveness make it a must-have for anglers who want dependable performance year-round.

To fish the San Juan Worm Tan effectively, dead drift it under an indicator or use it as the anchor fly in a tight-line nymph rig. It excels in deeper seams, riffles, and soft edges where trout cruise for food dislodged from the substrate. This pattern shines in both high and low water conditions and pairs well with flashy droppers or natural nymphs.
