Description

Zach is a legend. This fly is legendary. He is a friend of the shop, put me on my first bonefish, and sold us many of the fly displays in the shop. We were stoked to see his pattern still holding strong in the catalog.

Field Notes

A buoyant foam dry fly designed to imitate a hopper or stonefly on the surface. Fish it along banks, grassy seams, and riffles where trout are looking up, especially with a dead-drift presentation or a slight twitch to suggest a struggling insect.

Pros

  • Highly visible foam profile
  • Floats well for dry-fly presentations
  • Versatile hopper/stonefly imitation

Cons

  • Can look bulky in very calm, glassy water
  • Best when fish are feeding near the surface
