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.

trout

Techniques

casting, finesse

surface

Action

floating

clear water, low light, vegetation, open water

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
