BEAD HEAD BRASSIE NYMPH
Based on the success of nymphs with copper wire bodies such as this fly, the Copper John, Ian's Brass Ass, and a few others, there is obviously something about copper wire on a fly hook that draws fish. Some people say it's the segmentation, others the color, but whatever it is it works and works well. This is one of the premier dropper patterns you can use. Don't set foot in the water without this fly.

Copper john always does well. Nice variation that's similar but not identical.

It’s like a copper John on steroids.

The brassie is a go to on the south platte in the winter. One of my favorite flies.
