Element Baetis Foam Back is a finely crafted nymph designed to imitate the slender and agile Baetis mayfly, also known as the Blue-Winged Olive (BWO). Its realistic olive-brown body, segmented ribbing, and natural taper mimic the authentic profile of a Baetis nymph drifting in the current. The foam back adds a subtle touch of buoyancy, allowing the fly to ride slightly higher in the water column, perfectly imitating an emerging mayfly caught just below the surface film.
These fly fishing flies are tied with durable, high-quality materials that create a lifelike sheen and natural movement in the water. The addition of a subtle flash or ribbing provides just enough visibility to catch the eye of feeding trout without being overly flashy.
The Element Baetis Foam Back is ideal for fishing during BWO hatches in spring and fall, especially in slow seams, riffles, and tailouts where trout feed on emergers. It’s a versatile pattern that excels as part of a two-fly rig or fished solo with a delicate presentation.
