Nymph - Hellgrammite

Gapen Hellgrammite Nymph - Classic Dobsonfly Larva Pattern

The Gapen Hellgrammite Nymph is a classic nymph pattern designed to imitate the hellgrammite, the aquatic larva of the dobsonfly. This substantial nymph is highly effective for trout in rivers and streams with rocky bottoms, where hellgrammites are a primary food source.

Its realistic profile and durable construction make it an excellent searching pattern or match-the-hatch option when fish are feeding near the bottom.
