The Globug trout fly is an egg pattern. Globugs
are very popular when fishing for fresh run rainbows, especially in
the Taupo region and for fishing the Tongariro River in particular.
Consequently they are best used in winter or early spring when the
spawning runs take place. . Use the smaller sizes when the water is
very clear.
Fish as close to the bottom as possible and allow
to drift as natually as possible along the river bed. It's usual to
fish them in tandem with a heavier nymph Such as an epoxy
nymph to sink them to where the fish are. Takes can be very soft
and easy to miss.
