RIO Cat’s Burnt End

Description

The RIO Cat’s Burnt Endis a highly effective nymph pattern tied for RIO by signature fly tyer Cat Laflamme. The fly is likely a variation of a chironomid or midge larva, which are crucial food sources for stillwater trout. The “Burnt End” refers to a specific technique used in fly tying where synthetic or foam material is gently melted to create a durable, bulbous, or segmented appearance, often used to create a realistic butt or breathing-gill segment on the fly. The fly is noted for its realistic segmentation and effectiveness in stillwaters, particularly when targeting selective trout.
