This lure works great in the early morning when trout are active near the bank. The blue color stands out in the grassy areas and the ‘plop’ action draws fish consistently. I’ve used it in several streams and it’s become a go-to for trout.

Felt like a natural insect when dropped into the water. The low profile helps it stay close to the surface, which is perfect for fishing near trees. A bit more visible than other terrestrials, which helps when fishing in low light.

Used this in a wooded stream and caught three trout in under 30 minutes. The high-vis design makes it easy to see when it hits the water, and the realistic movement fools even cautious fish.
