Lurking beneath tangled roots, emerald backwaters, and tannin-stained jungle rivers, something stirs—and it’s about to fall for Umpqua’s Jungle Love. Originally tied to tempt northern predators like pike and muskie, this fly has since become a global seducer of exotics, conquering golden dorado in Bolivia and peacock bass in the Amazon with its hypnotic presence and effortless movement.
Jungle Love delivers a robust, full-bodied silhouette without the weight or water drag, making it a surprisingly easy fly to cast, even after long days in brutal heat. Its profile pushes water with attitude and shows just enough flash and movement to drive aggressive predators wild. Whether you're hunting apex species in South America or big-water toothies closer to home, this fly delivers drama—and bites—on every strip.
