The CBD Nymph Jig Fly in size 18 offers a downsized profile built for technical water, clear conditions, and trout that demand subtle presentations. This smaller version maintains all the core features of the original-slim body, natural coloration, and the signature jig-style tungsten bead-but in a more delicate, refined package. The weight of the bead allows it to sink quickly despite the smaller size, making it perfect for fishing shallow seams, slower pocket water, or spooky fish on tailwaters. The fly's segmented body and buggy thorax add realism without bulk, making it ideal for imitating smaller mayfly or caddis nymphs. Whether you're euro-nymphing tight against structure or dropping it behind a larger fly in a two-nymph rig, the size 18 CBD offers stealth, precision, and confidence in one compact package.
