TWO TONE BAETIS
DESCRIPTION
Looking for a simple, fast-sinking Euro nymph that gets into the strike zone quickly and fools even the most selective trout? Hogan Brown’s Two Tone Baetis is a must-have in your nymphing box. This easy-to-tie pattern features a sleek, segmented body with a subtle but effective two-tone color scheme—giving it a realistic Baetis (Blue-Winged Olive) profile that trout can’t ignore.
In this video, Hogan Brown demonstrates step-by-step how to tie the Two Tone Baetis, and shares why it’s been one of his go-to confidence patterns for Euro nymphing, tightline nymphing, and traditional indicator rigs alike. Whether you're fishing pressured tailwaters or technical freestone streams, this fly produces.
