2026 New Nymphs
We are excited to share our top 10 new nymphs for 2026! If you like nymphing, you’re going to want to read about these new nymphs. Whether you fish them under an indicator, dry dropper, or tightline euro nymphing, these new nymphs are sure to produce some quality fish if you present them well. If you enjoy putting new patterns to the test on your local waters, read on. Consider heading to your local fly shop to find them or order online!
Micro Mayfly
The segmented quill-body and life-like profile and movement of the pheasant tail is ideal when imitating small mayflies in the drift. This time tested and proven patterns catch fish worldwide! Micro May Nymphs are now available using tungsten beads and our FM barbless hooks, allowing you to achieve better sink rate and solid hook-ups with quality fish.
Updated Weiss’ BP Heavyweights
Weiss’ BP (Baetis Pellet) has been one of our top-selling nymphs for good reason! It is an effective imitation of Baetis nymphs, along with other small mayfly nymphs that trout feed on throughout the season. We decided to add these two new versions of Weiss’ BP, which feature heavier hooks intended for landing larger fish. Signature Tyer Pat Weiss’ stand-by Perdigon nymph is now using our Grab Gape Heavy hook. You’ve spoken, and we listened. Go catch some trout on them this year!
Signature Tyer Gregoire Juglaret’s Baetis Nymphs
Gregoire Jugleret’s unique Chocolate Baetis nymph is designed to fool some very wary trout. Transparency and a stark color contrast from light to dark make this little nymph irresistible to trout worldwide. Also offered in a light olive option, Juglarett’s baetis nymphs are worth having in the box. Available in sizes 16,18, and 20 to cover a range of baetis nymphs throughout the season.
Juglaret’s Flashback Possom Tail
Gregoire Jugleret’s Possum Tail Nymph is one of the buggiest nymphs we’ve seen for some time. The use of Possum Tail gives this pattern an extremely buggy look. Accompanied by a flashback to catch the light while in the drift, this is an ultimate tool for prospecting new waters. Available in sizes 14-18.
Arnot’s Pocket Drone Pink
Signature Tyer Jack Arnot is a key member of the Team USA Adult Fly Fishing Team and has helped the team win medals at numerous championship events. Embracing the techniques of euro nymphing and other multi-faceted styles of fishing, Jack discovered a universal approach to trout fishing that’s adaptable to any environment and his flies reflect this! A longtime confidence pattern in Jack’s nymph box. The Pocket Drone covers a range of baetis and mayfly needs, and Jack has fished it around the world. With its hot orange butt and subtly flashy ribbed body, this fly earns year-round real estate in the nymph box. See more flies from Jack Arnot here!
Bubba’s In The Zone Stone
A large stonefly nymph imitation that works incredibly well. Spun CDC for the thorax traps air bubbles and produces a life-like imitation while in the drift.
New Worms & Scuds
Trout love worms and freshwater crustaceans like scuds. If you fly fish for trout, chances are you already have a few patterns of each. Well, why not add a few more!
Wire Worms
It’s no secret that Wire Worms catch fish. We now offer 7 different color variations of the famous Wire Worm.
Limestoner Shrimp
From tailwaters to spring creeks, freshwater shrimp (scuds) are a key food item for trout. Where present, these small crustaceans are abundant and available year-round, making them an easy target. The Limestoner Scud is offered in sizes 12-18 and is available in two colors, shrimp olive and shrimp pink. Tested and proven nationwide on rivers that have freshwater shrimp! This realistic shrimp fly is now our go-to when prospecting new spring creeks or rivers influenced by limestone creeks.
Junk Flies
“Junk flies” aren’t for everyone, but if you like catching trout year-round, you’d better have some mop flies and eggs in your nymph box. When fished in the right scenarios, these patterns absolutely clean up. Both flies suggest a big reward to trout and absolutely clean up when presented properly in the right scenarios. Whether it’s a high-water day or a post-spawn egg fest, both mops and eggs have the potential to reward you with high-number days on the trout stream.
New Mop Flies
Stockie Machine Eggs
The Stockie Machine is an egg pattern that offers a more subtle presentation than typical eggs. It sinks more slowly, almost hovering in the water column, which makes it especially effective when fished as a bottom dropper. Acting like an underwater parachute, it gently suspends the rest of the rig and draws interest with its soft, natural descent. Whether targeting freshly stocked trout or pressured fish in slower water, this pattern consistently produces.
New Year, Same Passion
2025 was full of good things for us at Fulling Mill. Tons of new fly tying materials and good days on the water. With your support, we are planning to maintain our momentum into the new year, and it starts with these top 10 new nymphs. We hope you find time to get on the water this year and put some of these nymphs to good use!
