{"product_id":"rios-challenged-pt-copy","title":"RIO's Morrish Dirty Bird TB","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the late 80's, long before beadheads reached the Americas and as my slack-line nymphing game came into its own, I became darn near a one-pattern angler. The fly of choice was a commercial rendition of Cal Bird's Bird's Nest. With a few #16's, a spool of 5X, and some BB shot, I felt unstoppable. Once beads came forward, I began working on my own version of the Bird's Nest, and after a good deal of experimentation settled on the Dirty Bird, which was my first-ever royalty pattern. After nearly three decades of fishing it, it remains my go-to pattern. If I want to skip the careful observation period and just go fishing, this is my fly. It is super generic and buggy and works as a caddis, mayfly and scud. The black bead is more subtle and realistic than other beads and the fly works great dead-drifted or on the swing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rio","offers":[{"title":"#12","offer_id":49114803175667,"sku":null,"price":4.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#14","offer_id":49114803208435,"sku":null,"price":4.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0871\/4930\/files\/Freshwater-TungstenFlies_RIO_sMorrishDirtyBirdTBHare_sEar.webp?v=1779544830","url":"https:\/\/www.calgarysflyshop.com\/products\/rios-challenged-pt-copy","provider":"Out Fly Fishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
