In this video, Greg ties a simple San Juan Worm fly pattern with information for beginning tyers.
Effective for trout throughout the West, this controversial fly is great for beginning fly tyers to practice their techniques with pinch-wraps and uniformed thread foundations.
The San Juan Worm has many options such as beads for weight, colors, sizes, lengths, and much more. Use it nymphing or suspended under a dry fly for better luck.
Thanks for watching.
