Umpqua Feather Merchants Umpqua Tungsten Carotene Jig

"This fly is about three years old and I was just playing around with a jig hook and some of my favorite materials. I was trying for something really simple and general. I think the Carotene covers stones, caddis and mayflies. I have fished in several competitions the last three years and this fly has made a difference in each competition. I have so much confidence fishing this fly no matter were I am at. I fish it like a basic nymph, but when there is caddis activity I will swing it like a wet fly and crush them. The Carotene is always in my box in sizes from 8 to 14 and I have caught fish all over the world with this pattern. This is one of my secret flies and this was not easy to give up but what the hell." - Signature Tyer Mike Sexton
