Welcome to Fly Vision™. In this Short, you will learn how to tie a trout magnet fly designed to grab the attention of feeding trout. If you have ever wanted to master how to tie a trout magnet that draws aggressive strikes, you are in the right place. In this video, Johnny Utah shows how to tie a trout magnet with real-world proportions, movement, and durability. Learning how to tie a trout magnet means understanding how small changes in materials and balance can create big reactions in the water.

how entomology connects to trout magnets
Insects and small baitfish move through streams with subtle, erratic motion. That natural movement is what triggers trout to react. Learning how to tie a trout magnet helps you tap into that instinct. Properly weighted, balanced flies create irresistible motion in current seams and pockets, where trout are waiting for easy meals. Matching the look and movement of small prey is the key to success with jig-style patterns and trout magnets.

how the trout magnet fools fish
The trout magnet design fools trout through a combination of weight, bounce, and flash. Its slim, durable profile and weighted head allow it to sink quickly into the strike zone. Light materials and clean proportions create natural drift and subtle kicking action, even in slow currents. Trout often cannot resist this movement, especially when the fly is presented near the bottom in pocket water, riffles, or runs.

how to tie a trout magnet, fly vision method
Johnny Utah demonstrates how to tie a trout magnet with the right materials, thread control, and proportions. Key details include using a properly sized bead, a clean but sparse body, and careful balance of tailing materials. By focusing on strong thread bases and minimal bulk, the fly stays durable and rides correctly in the water column. Every wrap, every cut, every choice matters when building a fly that triggers strikes by motion alone.

how and where to fish trout magnets
Trout magnets perform best when fished near the bottom where trout are holding. Drift them naturally along seams, bounce them through riffles, or dead drift them through pools. They also shine in colder conditions when trout are less willing to move far for food. Learning how to tie a trout magnet gives you a versatile tool for every season, capable of pulling strikes even when conditions are tough.

about johnny utah + fly vision™
I’m Johnny Utah, founder of Fly Vision™. After years spent tying, fishing, guiding, and teaching, I built Fly Vision™ to bring cinematic storytelling and real-world fly tying together. Here, you learn not just how to tie flies—but how to fish them, how to think about them, and how to build skills that last. Every video is created to teach serious techniques in a cinematic way. If a fly can catch it—we tie it. If there’s a better way, we show you how.
