Field Notes

This is a freshwater fly pattern designed to fish subsurface, often with a slow retrieve or short strips. The buoyant eyes help it hover or ride higher in the water, making it useful when targeting trout or other freshwater species around structure, drop-offs, or weed edges.

Pros

  • Buoyant eye design helps suspend the fly higher
  • Hand-tied on fly hooks
  • Good for subsurface presentation

Cons

  • Specialized fly pattern, not a general-purpose lure
  • Likely requires fly tackle and technique
