Field Notes

This is a mayfly spinner pattern meant to imitate spent adult insects lying on the surface. Fish it in the evening or during a hatch when trout are keying on naturals trapped in the film. A dead-drift presentation on calm water is usually best.

Pros

  • Excellent match for spent mayfly hatches
  • Works well during evening surface feeding
  • Simple, natural presentation

Cons

  • Very specific hatch imitation
  • Can be hard to see in low light
