Size 16 | 2.8mm Tungsten Bead
The Hot Head Frenchie Jig is a fast-sinking euro nymph designed to get down quickly and trigger aggressive trout strikes.
Built on a size 16 jig hook with a 2.8mm tungsten bead, this fly sinks rapidly and rides hook-point up, helping reduce snags while fishing rocky runs, pocket water, and tight seams. The bright orange hot bead acts as a strike trigger that trout key in on, while the slim buggy body profile imitates a wide range of aquatic insects found in North Georgia rivers.
This pattern excels as the point fly in a euro nymphing rig, but also performs extremely well under an indicator when fishing deeper runs.
Whether you're fishing the Soque, Etowah, or mountain freestone streams, the Hot Head Frenchie Jig gets down fast and gets eaten.
This fly is hand-tied by Brannon Soles, Navy veteran and Thin Line Fly Co. Signature Fly Tier. Each fly reflects the craftsmanship, precision, and attention to detail that comes from time at the vise and time in service.
When you fish the Hot Head Frenchie Jig, you're supporting veteran craftsmanship and the Thin Line mission.
