While it keeps the same proven jig style profile and tungsten bead, the key difference is the contrasting hot rib and a gold bead, which introduces a subtle flash of colour as the fly moves through the drift.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThat rib can be particularly effective when fish are following nymphs but not fully committing, or when a small point of contrast helps the fly stand out against the riverbed. It still fishes naturally and doesn’t overpower the pattern, making it a strong choice for clear water, pressured fish, or situations where small details make a difference. Used alongside plainer nymphs, it often picks up fish that have seen plenty of more muted patterns.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease note all of our fishing flies are barbless unless otherwise stated.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDuracell Hot Rib Jig Tungsten Nymph Specification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTarget Species – Trout \/ Grayling \/ Sea Trout\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTail - Pheasant Tail \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody - Ice Dub UV Dun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRib - GB No. 4\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHackle - CDC Natural Head\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThorax - Ice Dub UV Dun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHead - Tungsten Gold Bead\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHook - Barbless, Mustad of Norway\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow To Fish the Duracell Hot Rib Jig Tungsten Bead Nymph\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUpstream Controlled Drift\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFish the nymph upstream or slightly up and across, allowing it to sink into the feeding zone before entering the main flow.

Fish it on a long leader with a high rod angle, keeping the connection tight and eliminating excess fly line beyond the tip. This direct contact style ensures the fly stays under full control from entry to lift out.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe tungsten bead rapidly sinks the jig nymph into the strike zone, while the jig hook pattern keeps it riding point up to minimise bottom snags. Allow the fly to lead slightly ahead of the current as it tracks along the riverbed, maintaining steady tension so even minor hesitations can be detected. The hot rib adds a subtle flash and trigger effect, often drawing confident takes from trout or grayling feeding deep in faster flows.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKlink and Dink \/ New Zealand Style\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis pattern works well beneath a buoyant dry fly in a classic Klink and Dink or New Zealand style setup.
