Overview
The Umpqua Hipster Dufus in Orange Butt/Olive is a high-performance attractor nymph designed to deliver maximum visibility, depth, and natural movement in fast or turbulent water. Blending modern
Euro-nymphing functionality with
classic aesthetics, this fly features a
slim,
segmented body with a flashy
orange butt that acts as a built-in strike trigger. The
olive coloration throughout the body provides a natural
insect-like tone, while the vibrant hot spot ensures it stands out in stained or deep water.
Built on a
barbless jig hook with a
heavy tungsten bead, the
Hipster Dufus rides hook-up and plummets to the bottom quickly, maintaining contact with the feeding zone for longer drifts. The durable materials and compact design make it ideal for use in
double-nymph rigs,
dry-dropper setups, or as a
standalone fly in tightline and Euro-nymphing applications. Whether you're targeting fish in
deep pools,
fast riffles, or
technical tailouts, this pattern delivers fast penetration, reduced snagging, and consistent strikes.
