This upgraded version of the swimming biot nymph features a unique construction using synthetic dubbing in the back, which adds an extra burst of color to the fly. I love a lot this approach of tying nymphs. Even if the material gets ripped, the fly remains usable, ensuring you can continue fishing without any interruptions. The combination of synthetic fibers used provides a visually interesting effect, attracting the attention of fish. Additionally, the inclusion of free mylar fibers enhances the fly’s mobility, making it even more efficient.
