Tungsten Caddis Larva

Our tungsten caddis larva is designed to sink fast and stay in the strike zone. A slim profile, realistic segmentation, and high-density tungsten bead make it deadly in fast water, deep runs, and pressured fisheries. Fish it as a point fly or behind an attractor when trout are keyed on caddis larvae.

The Tungsten Caddis Larva is a fast sinking caddis nymph built for trout feeding close to the bottom. The tungsten bead helps it reach depth quickly, making it a strong choice for riffles, seams, pocket water, and deeper runs where caddis larvae are drifting naturally.

This pattern gives trout a compact, buggy profile without adding unnecessary flash. It is especially useful when fish are keyed on subsurface caddis, small aquatic insects, or natural bottom-drifting food rather than larger attractor patterns.

Fish it as a point fly, under an indicator, or in a Euro nymphing setup when you need a reliable caddis imitation that gets down fast. It pairs well with a smaller dropper nymph or a brighter attractor when you want both realism and contrast in the same rig.
