Description

THE FLY The superb Pahtakorva colours on this vibrating little creature have proven to be exceptionally effective. We prefer it in whiskey-coloured water, fished on a relatively heavy tip. It seems that the pig-style fly design works better when fished deeper and slower than traditional hair wings. This member of the family has successfully caught fish in everything from crystal-clear to quite murky water. FEATURES – Vibrating feelers of wild boar and selected stripped hackles – FITS rubber feeler cone and micro turbo cone – SSS dubbing and glitz dubbing mix – Vibration creator – Translucent appearance

Cons
