John Barr's Copper John sinks faster than nearly any conventional nymph — wire body, bead head, epoxy wingcase. It isn't a precise imitation of anything, and the fish don't care.

When to Fish It

All season, any time you need to get deep fast: heavy riffles, plunge pools, high water. The classic hopper-dropper anchor fly. Fish it on light tippet as your point fly with something smaller behind it.

Key Info

  • Type: Nymph (wire body, bead head)
  • Imitates: Attractor — suggests mayfly and stonefly nymphs
  • Sizes: 12, 14, 16, 18
  • Best for: Trout, bass, and panfish in faster water
  • Fish it: Hopper-dropper, indicator rig, or euro rig

Hand-tied with premium materials by tiers with over 30 years of experience.
