Olsen's Peacock Blowtorch Barbless Euro Nymph is a proven fly with roots in competitive angling, crafted for optimal performance in targeting trout and grayling. During the 2014 World Fly Fishing Championships in the Czech Republic, this fly’s originator was introduced to a local tag nymph technique by a Czech guide, specifically for fishing flatter sections of the Vltava River. After refining the color scheme, enhancing the hackle mobility, and adjusting the weight for nymphing in varied river sections, Olsen perfected what became the Blowtorch nymph. This tungsten-weighted fly quickly gained a reputation for success, leading to two podium finishes in the championship and earning its place as a favorite attractor nymph for diverse waters. Featuring a barbless hook for easy, fish-friendly release and durability to withstand aggressive strikes, Olsen's Peacock Blowtorch is ideal for Euro nymphing enthusiasts looking to maximize their catch.
