Field Notes

This is a dry fly imitation of a mayfly, meant to sit on the surface and match an active hatch. Fish it to rising trout in calm water or during a visible hatch when trout are keying on insects. A drag-free drift is the main presentation.

Pros

  • Excellent mayfly imitation
  • Floats well with parachute hackle
  • Good for selective trout during hatches

Cons

  • Can be hard to see in low light
  • Less effective when fish are not feeding on the surface
