Fishing a heavy fly on a jig hook allows the angler to get their fly in the zone without snagging as often, which is a huge key to tricking a big trout. They have a flowing, diving action when retrieved on a jerky strip. Fish love to hit them on a dead fall as they sink. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Deep Dive is an excellent choice as an anchor fly when Euro nymphing.

I just wanted it on a jig hook that wouldn’t snag bottom as easily, more flash, and heavier. The beauty of flashy flies is that they tend to generate a territorial reaction strike, meaning you can catch fish with them that are not actively or even opportunistically feeding. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ethe Impossible Meat is too heavy to fish on rods under a 6 weight. It’s also much easier to control with a short leader, although it fishes best on a long leader. Slow your casting rhythm down slightly and keep an oval pattern going to prevent head injury and cracked rod blanks. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trout Trap Flies","offers":[{"title":"Gold","offer_id":40204533006423,"sku":"","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Platinum","offer_id":42333120462935,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":40204537561175,"sku":"","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Limited Edition Ghost Pearl","offer_id":43125037629527,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Limited Edition Avocado","offer_id":43920978214999,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0032\/0035\/2305\/files\/9053760E-1E8A-4F5F-9695-85CC143D027C.jpg?v=1765572477"},{"product_id":"deep-fake-leech-3-pack","title":"Deep Fake Leech- 3 Pack","description":"\u003cp\u003eSize 8 Competition Barbless Hook, 2\" long\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew for 2026. The Deep Fake Leech was born at Pyramid Lake, Nevada. I needed an ultra slim, fast sinking fly that was barbless, with an ultra sticky needle point hook, that balances under an indicator and gets eaten by fish. Normal balanced leeches are really hard to cast on two handed rods- the pin and bead sticking way out in front of the eye digs into the water, making spey or roll casts much less effective. The Deep Fake still balances, but utilizes a different format of tungsten bead that provides an ultra slim body profile (without the added bulk of a pin running up the shank of the fly) while maintaining a horizontal presentation. Try these on your local stillwater- I haven't yet found a place that trout won't eat them. These first couple batches are made with special bead colors that I painted myself- to get exactly the right colors. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trout Trap Flies","offers":[{"title":"Limited Edition Minnow","offer_id":43608156700759,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Limited Edition Black\/Chartruese","offer_id":42714286227543,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Limited Edition Asher’s Blue Diesel","offer_id":42474176806999,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black Peliwhopper","offer_id":42157922091095,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Limited Edition Olive\/Chartreuse","offer_id":42501223612503,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Limited Edition Tui Chub Fry","offer_id":42157922123863,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Limited Edition Peliwhopper","offer_id":42439756611671,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0032\/0035\/2305\/files\/1480DB54-4230-4CE7-AC12-9B0C33FBB976.jpg?v=1779123745"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0032\/0035\/2305\/collections\/08A4C1AF-1B89-4CA4-9CE5-D63F9D759F75.jpg?v=1779739110","url":"https:\/\/www.trouttrapflies.com\/collections\/jig-streamers.oembed","provider":"Trout Trap Flies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
