Troutbitten Micro-Thin Mono Rig

$14.00

1 in stock

The Troutbitten Micro-Thin Mono Rig is a specialized tool for tight line nymphing. Built with a five pound Maxima Chameleon butt section, it is useful when line sag must be kept to an absolute minimum, particularly at distances between twenty-two to thirty feet. Micro-Thin leaders also provide extra sensitivity, with better feel and strike detection than thicker leaders.

The Micro-Thin Mono Rig is better suited for cross stream presentations than the Troutbitten Standard Mono Rig. But it’s not versatile and is not recommended for indy styles, dry dropper or streamer work.

—  Sighter of 3X Rio Bicolor, with Backing Barrel, is built in.

— Includes a high quality, black, 1.5 mm tippet ring at the end of the sighter.

— Angler adds appropriate length of tippet.

— Comes on a three-inch plastic spool, perfect for storing long leaders.

Also Offered: All three Troutbitten Mono Rigs are available as a full kit — found HERE.

Streamer Presentations — The Speed Lead

“Cast it upstream!” I hollered over clamoring currents. Standing behind and slightly to the side of Joey, I watched his next cast land the streamer inches from the opposite bank and directly across from him. It was a good spot, but it wasn't upstream. “Look at that!”...

A Better Streamer Box

After many years of carrying a select group of my favorite streamers in a fairly small box, I now find myself in an experimental phase with the big bugs again.  I'm generally in the camp that believes presentation is far more important than pattern, but trying new...

Seven Days

I’m not a tourist. I’m not a passenger or a passerby to these waters. On this river, I’m more than local and more than occasional. I’m here so often that the water stays with me. My wading boots haven’t dried out for five months, and they get one day off a week, at...

Fifty Fly Fishing Tips: #4 — Fish Familiar Waters

When I was a boy, I dreamed of having a trout stream close enough to walk to. It was my greatest wish. I now have a world-class wild trout fishery just a short hike out the back door. It’s a remarkably consistent river, the kind you should never be skunked on — and...
