- Tackle Tactics MEPPS BUG
- Z-Man Fishing TRD GobyZ™
Why these fit
- Big Y Fly Co Harrop's CDC Biot Dun PMD - Solitude - Mayfly Dry Fly is the best true imitation option when trout are focused on PMDs and want a subtle, natural-looking surface fly.
- Tackle Tactics MEPPS BUG is a good bug-imitating moving lure for fish that respond to flash, vibration, and an insect-like profile.
- Z-Man Fishing TRD GobyZ™ fits when you need a bottom-forage imitation for bass, especially around structure where gobies or similar prey are present.
Technique notes
- Fish the PMD dry with long leaders, light tippet, and a dead-drift presentation.
- Work the MEPPS BUG with a steady retrieve and occasional pauses near surface activity.
- Rig the TRD GobyZ on a Ned-style jighead and keep it close to bottom with slow drags or a subtle swim.
When to switch
- Switch from the PMD dry to the MEPPS BUG if fish are rising but won’t commit to a delicate dead-drift.
- Switch to the TRD GobyZ when bass are feeding low and tight to cover, rocks, or other bottom structure.
- If the fish are not keyed on insects or gobies, a different forage match may be needed.
