Field Notes

This is a Blue-Winged Olive dry fly designed to sit in or on the surface film and imitate a natural mayfly hatch. Fish it to rising trout on calm to lightly riffled water with a dead-drift presentation.

Pros

  • Excellent surface-film presentation
  • Natural BWO silhouette
  • Good match for trout during mayfly hatches

Cons

  • Small size can be hard to see
  • Best when fish are keyed on mayflies
