Improved Rainbow Warrior

The Rainbow Warrior, Refined

The original Rainbow Warrior earned its reputation as one of the most effective attractor nymphs in the game. The Improved Rainbow Warrior takes that foundation and builds on it with upgraded materials and construction that push the pattern's effectiveness even further. The result is a fly that's more durable, more translucent, and more irresistible in the water column.

What Sets It Apart

• Hook - Firehole Sticks 633 Barbless
• Silver wire ribbed body sealed in UV resin — creates a glassy, segmented profile with exceptional depth and translucency that the original simply can't match
• Bead head — gets the fly down fast and provides a bright focal point that draws the strike
• Translucent UV ice dubbed collar — pulses with light and movement, adding a lifelike quality that trout find hard to refuse
• Four color options — purple, red, green, and orange to cover a wide range of conditions and angler preferences
• Hand-tied at Ty's Flies with precise, consistent proportions in every size

Fish It Anywhere, Any Season

The Improved Rainbow Warrior excels as a point fly on a euro rig, a dropper behind a heavier anchor, or under an indicator in slower water. The UV resin body catches and holds light even in low visibility conditions, making it a reliable choice from early spring through late fall. Available in sizes 12–18.
