The Rainbow Warrior has earned a reputation as one of the most effective attractor nymphs ever created. Originally developed by Lance Egan, this flashy pattern consistently fools trout by combining a slim profile with just the right amount of sparkle and movement.

Whether you're fishing tailwaters, freestone streams, or spring creeks, the Rainbow Warrior is a proven producer that deserves a place in every nymph box. This kit includes all the materials needed to tie 25 Rainbow Warriors, along with access to a step-by-step instructional video from Togens Fly Shop.

Everything needed to tie 25 Rainbow Warrior Fly's.

Why It Works

The Rainbow Warrior doesn't imitate one specific insect. Instead, it triggers trout with a combination of flash, profile, and movement that resembles a wide variety of emerging aquatic insects.

Its flashy body makes it easy for fish to spot, while the slim silhouette and natural materials keep it looking like a vulnerable food source. The result is a pattern that produces fish year-round and often outperforms more realistic imitations.

Perfect For

• Beginner fly tyers
• Euro nymphing and indicator fishing
• Building confidence with nymph fishing
• Anglers looking for a proven attractor pattern

How To Fish It

Fish the Rainbow Warrior as part of a two-fly rig, under an indicator, or on a euro nymph setup. It works especially well as the attractor fly paired with a more natural pattern.

Focus on achieving a drag-free drift near the bottom where trout are feeding. The flash in the fly helps trout locate it quickly, even in deeper or slightly stained water.
