Gold Rib Hare’s Ear Nymph – Standard, Flashback & Olive

Stone Creek™ Gold Rib Hare’s Ear Nymph – Standard, Flashback & Olive

The Stone Creek™ Gold Rib Hare’s Ear Nymph is one of the most widely used and effective nymph patterns in fly fishing. Known for its buggy appearance and versatility, this classic fly imitates a broad range of aquatic insects including mayfly nymphs, caddis larvae, and other subsurface food sources trout feed on throughout the year.

Available in three proven styles—Standard, Flashback, and Olive—the Gold Rib Hare’s Ear gives anglers options for matching changing water conditions and insect activity. The Standard version offers the traditional natural profile that has produced fish for generations. The Flashback version adds extra flash to attract trout in deeper water, faster currents, or stained conditions. The Olive variation closely imitates Blue Wing Olive nymphs and other olive-colored mayfly larvae commonly found in rivers and tailwaters.

Whether fished under an indicator, as part of a tandem nymph rig, or tight-lined through productive water, the Gold Rib Hare’s Ear remains a must-have pattern for trout anglers everywhere.
