Baetis Mini Flash Wing
$2.50 USD
Size: 18
Color: Black
The Baetis Mini Flash Wing is a delicate, realistic nymph pattern designed to imitate small Baetis (Blue-Winged Olive) mayfly nymphs—one of the most important food sources for trout year-round. This fly features a slim profile with natural olive or brown tones and a subtle flash wing that mimics the emerging insect’s wing case or shuck. That flash adds just enough attraction to trigger strikes without overwhelming wary fish, making it perfect for clear water and pressured fisheries.
Tied on a quality hook with durable materials, the Mini Flash Wing rides naturally in the water column. It’s especially effective during Baetis hatches in spring and fall but fishes well in tailwaters any time of year. Whether you’re euro nymphing, indicator nymphing, or using a dry-dropper setup, this fly is a smart addition to any trout angler’s fly box.
