Use this soft hackle wet fly when fish are feeding on emerging insects or small subsurface prey. It is especially effective on a swing presentation or a gentle downstream drift in moving water.

  • Works well on a swing or drift
  • Simple, versatile trout fly

Cons

  • Less visible in very dirty water
  • Best results usually require some fly-fishing presentation skill
