Copper John - Olive

Copper John Olive — Bead Head Attractor Nymph

The Copper John Olive puts a proven twist on John Barr's iconic attractor nymph. The olive colorway broadens its imitative range, closely matching the coloration of PMD, Baetis, and green drake nymphs that trout key on throughout the season. Weighted with a bead head and built with a copper wire body and epoxy wing case, it sinks fast and holds its profile in heavy current — a go-to point fly for deep runs and tight seams on the Roaring Fork, Frying Pan, and Colorado River.

• Color — Olive body matches PMD, Baetis, and green drake nymph coloration
• Bead — Bead head drives the fly into the strike zone fast in deep and fast water
• Body — Copper wire with epoxy wing case — durable, flashy, and highly visible to trout
• Profile — Imitates a wide range of mayfly and stonefly nymphs; works as both an attractor and imitation
• Use — Effective in euro nymphing rigs, indicator setups, and as a point fly or dropper
• Sizes — Available in #10, #12, #16, and #20
