Troutbitten Micro-Thin Mono Rig

$14.00

21 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, 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.

Fishing Big Water – One Key Tip

Fly Casting — Acquire Your Target Before the Pickup

Accuracy. It’s an elementary casting principle, but it’s the hardest thing to deliver. Wild trout are unforgiving. So the errant cast that lands ten inches to the right of a shade line passes without interest. As river anglers, our task is a complicated one, because...

How Many Effective Fishing Minutes?

In an eight hour fishing trip, how many minutes does your nymph spend in the strike zone? What percentage of your time on the water keeps the dry fly in a pure dead drift? And how long is your streamer in great water, looking like something that a trout might want to...

Cover Water — Catch Trout

John crossed the bridge with his head down. He watched each wading boot meet a railroad tie before picking up his other foot for the next step. Cautiously, he walked the odd and narrow gait required when walking the tracks. And with nothing but air between each...
