Field Notes

A classic dry fly imitation for selective trout feeding on mayflies and other small surface insects. Fish it dead-drift on calm to lightly riffled water when trout are rising, using a fine leader and gentle presentations.

Pros

  • Natural mayfly profile
  • Good for selective surface feeders
  • Simple dead-drift presentation

Cons

  • Small and delicate
  • Can be hard to see in low light
  • Less effective when fish are not rising
