The Ultimate Freshwater Bass Fly Pattern

When trophy largemouth and smallmouth bass are keyed in on panfish, nothing matches the lifelike presentation of the EP® Bluegill. Tied to flawlessly replicate one of the most universally recognized freshwater forage fish, this 3-inch, size #1/0 fly is an absolute must-have in every warmwater angler’s box.

Crafted using premium, ultra-durable EP® Fibers and a touch of flash, this pattern perfectly mimics the profile, fluid movement, and subtle shimmer of a live bluegill without waterlogging. Whether you are stripping it along weed lines, pitching it under docks, or working structure, its realistic action triggers aggressive, instinctual strikes from predatory fish.

Key Features:

  • Perfect Match-the-Hatch Profile: Meticulously shaped to replicate the deep-bodied silhouette of a juvenile sunfish/bluegill.

  • Premium Tying Materials: Features a high-tier blend of EP® Fibers (Bronze, Yellow, Rust), EP® Sparkle, and EP® Silky Fibers for unparalleled underwater action.

  • Razor-Sharp Hardware: Built on a heavy-duty Gamakatsu B10S #1/0 hook to handle violent strikes and ensure solid hooksets.

  • Easy to Cast: Synthetic materials shed water instantly on the backcast, allowing for effortless, all-day casting on standard freshwater fly rods.

  • Hand-Painted Realism: Enhanced with Chartpak Ad Markers (Olive/Black) for realistic barring and natural coloration.

Specifications:

  • Fly Size: #1/0 (Approx. 3" length)

  • Target Species: Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Pike, and large Peacock Bass

  • Recommended Gear: 6wt to 8wt fly rods with floating or intermediate sinking lines
