Uses

Matts Fur makes a decent imitation of a golden stonefly nymph, which is has mottled gray, brown, and black coloration. In various sizes, it is a decent all-around nymph pattern.

How to Fish

Dead drift near the bottom using the indicator or tight line presentations. Seek bouldery and riffly sections of rivers that have populations of golden stonefly nymphs.
