Best Fly Patterns for Trout Fishing on Oklahoma's Blue River

What does AI say about...?

The Blue River in southeastern Oklahoma remains a hotspot for winter trout, with weekly stockings of rainbow trout from November through March (as of November 9, 2025). These patterns excel on stocked fish that favor eggs and worms early on, transitioning to nymphs and streamers as they hold.
I've incorporated detailed descriptions into the Notes & Tips column for each pattern for ease of reference. Additionally, focus on 4-6X tippet, strike indicators for subsurface presentation, and check Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation for fresh stockings.

Type	Pattern	Size	Notes & Tips
Egg	Eggstacy (Flo Peach)	14-16	Rounded synthetic roe fly in fluorescent peach/orange. Top for stocked trout; drift in riffles or under indicators.
Egg	Generic Egg Pattern	12-16	Simple round bead-head fly with bright yarn/synthetic body (pink/orange/yellow). Deadly post-stocking in clear water.
Worm	Squirmy Worm / Mega Worm	10-14	Flexible rubbery worm in red/pink, optional bead head. Jig/swing in slow water for aggressive takes.
Worm	San Juan Worm	12-16	Classic red/pink chenille worm on curved hook with tails. Suspend under indicator.
Jig	Weiss' Jig Streamer	14-16	Jig-hook olive/black sculpin imitation with weighted head & marabou tail. Bounce on bottom.
Jig	Black DM Jig	14	Simple black jig-head midge/nymph. Effective in murky water via silhouette.
Nymph	Hare's Ear (Natural)	16-18	Classic spiky brown/tan hare's ear nymph with beadhead. Dead-drift in seams for spring hatches.
Nymph	Pheasant Tail (Flashback, Gold)	18	Slim pheasant tail nymph with gold rib & flashback. For picky fish.
Nymph	Copper John	16	Weighted copper wire nymph (green/black, beadhead). For deeper runs.
Nymph	Mop Fly	10-12	Absorbent chenille mop body (white/chartreuse/tan). Junk fly for bottom feeders in stocked waters.
Dry	Blue-Winged Olive (BWOs)	16-18	Small grayish-olive mayfly dry fly. For spring hatches, evenings.
Dry	Elk Hair Caddis	14-18	Buoyant elk hair wing dry fly (tan/olive body). For caddis hatches; dead-drift or skate.
Dry	Griffith's Gnat	16-20	Peacock herl & grizzly hackle midge cluster. For low-light surface feeding on small insects.
Streamer	Woolly Bugger	6-10	Versatile marabou tail & hackle streamer (olive/black). Strip aggressively in pools for big rainbows.
Streamer	Muddler Minnow	4	Bulky deer hair head (tan/olive) imitating sculpin/baitfish. For rocky areas.
Streamer	Double Bunny	2-4	Tandem rabbit zonker streamer (olive/white). Erratic retrieves for trophy fish.

Pro Tips: Pair eggs/worms with nymph droppers for limits on fresh stockers. In fall/winter 2025, hit deeper runs with jigs/streamers during low light. Local ties at Scottie's One Stop in Tishomingo match these exactly. Tight lines—your recent double-limit weekend vibes all over this!
