Field Notes

This is a traditional wet fly pattern that can also be fished as a dry depending on hatch conditions. It is well suited to teasing back through a wave on lochs or swinging through moving water when trout are feeding on emerging insects.

Pros

  • Versatile wet-or-dry presentation
  • Good imitation for mayfly hatches
  • Effective on lochs and moving water

Cons

  • Size 10 may be too large for very selective fish
  • Less specialized than a dedicated hatch-matching fly
