2Bit Hooker Rubber Leg Nymph (Two Bit Hooker Nymph)
2Bit Hooker Rubber Leg Nymph This is a play on Charlie Cravens' incredibly popular and effective pattern called the Two Bit Hooker.

We love fishing this in a two...

Not every ant will remain on the surface until eaten though, and many will become submersed in the water dropping into the fishes feeding zone. This makes a sunken ant pattern a must have in every anglers box. This one is...
