Copper John - #shorts

Copper Johns are super heavy flies that get you down quickly. They are perfect for lead flies since they are flashy, attractor patterns and weighted. Before we started using tunsten beads, copper johns were the heaviest thing that you could fish, and therefor were used widely instead of lead to get your rig down to the fish quickly. Like many lead flies, these were fished with less weighted flies on the back, generally something more natural looking.
