Innovative Design
Crafted to replicate fish eggs or roe, the Glo Bug’s vivid fluorescent hues provoke instinctive strikes from predatory fish.
Tying Technique
This pattern is built on a short-shank, heavy-wire hook (sizes 6–12) using yarn tied in a dense clump and trimmed into a perfect spherical shape for maximum realism.
Standout Features
Bright, high-visibility colors like neon orange, pink, and chartreuse dominate the Glo Bug’s design, ensuring it stands out underwater and triggers aggressive feeding behavior. A whip finish and head cement lock the yarn in place for long-lasting durability.
Natural Imitation
The Glo Bug perfectly mimics fish eggs—a protein-rich food source—making it deadly during spawning seasons when eggs drift downstream in currents.
Prime Fishing Spots
Ideal for rivers and streams, especially near spawning grounds where trout, steelhead, salmon, and grayling aggressively target drifting eggs. Focus on riffles, runs, and tailouts for the best results.
Versatile Effectiveness
While a favorite for trout and steelhead, this pattern also fools egg-eating salmon and grayling, proving its worth as a must-have fly during spawning runs.
