Field Notes

Use this as a terrestrial dry fly during hopper season, especially when trout are looking up along grassy banks, undercut edges, and other shoreline cover. It is best fished dead-drift or with a slight twitch on the surface to imitate a struggling grasshopper.

Pros

  • Strong hopper profile with visible legs
  • Good surface presentation for trout
  • Useful during terrestrial hatches and late-summer feeding

Cons

  • Can be less effective outside hopper season
  • May require careful floatation and drift control
