Description: The Shimmer Stone is a two toned stonefly nymph that has a very realistic profile of the natural and has many triggers built in that makes it an excellent attractor pattern. The wing case and entire top of this pattern is darker than the underside. This pattern is a great representation of larger stonefly nymphs found in just about any freestone or tailwater river across the world.
What it imitates: Larger Stonefly nymphs, yellow, golden or darker colored stoneflies
When to fish it: Anytime
Where to fish it: Pretty much any river where stoneflies are present, but can also be used as an attractor pattern when conditions are off; high or dirty water
How to fish it: The Shimmer Stone can be fished under an indicator in a multi-fly rig, on a tight line nymph rig, or in any one of the European style nymph rigs. At times, and with great success, I have used this fly as a dropper below an adult stonefly or salmonfly.
