San Juan Worm

The San Juan Worm is a popular and highly effective fly pattern designed to imitate the appearance of a worm in freshwater environments. Tied with red chenille or similar material, this fly features a soft, segmented body that mimics the natural movement of worms found in rivers and streams. Its bright red color makes it especially attractive to trout and other fish, particularly in low-water conditions or when fish are feeding on worms after rain events. The weight of the pattern, often tied with a beadhead or similar materials, ensures it reaches the strike zone quickly, making it an essential tool for any angler targeting trout in varied conditions.
