RIO’s Pool Noodle TB (6-Pack)
RIO’s Pool Noodle was designed after a Montana trip when a similar worm fly was working great, however constantly getting hung up. The obvious answer to this was to add a tungsten bead and a jig hook, and the end result is this deadly pattern. Heavy and riding point up, this fly is going to be a go-to for your nymph rig. Tied on a barbless hook.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the tungsten bead in the fly?
The tungsten bead adds weight to the fly, helping it sink and ride point up in the water, which improves its performance when targeting nymphs in deeper water.
Is the hook barbed or barbless?
The hook is barbless, designed for safer use and easier handling when fishing in sensitive environments.
Can this fly be used for both still and moving water?
Yes, due to its heavy, point-up design, it performs well in both still and moving water conditions when targeting nymphs.

This fly works great in slow-moving streams. The tungsten bead keeps it stable and it stays on the bottom. I’ve used it for several days and it’s still holding up well.
Ian Wilson –
The point-up design makes it easy to cast and it stays in place. I noticed it’s heavier than other nymphs, which helps it sink faster in deeper water.
Nicholas Thomson –
Great for targeting nymphs in cold water. The barbless hook is a plus when I’m fishing near banks or in areas with fish that are easily spooked.
