This fly worked well on a cold spring morning when I was targeting steelhead. The flash wing and rubber legs made it look natural and it stayed on the water longer than expected. I caught a few fish with it.

Used it during a trout run in a clear stream. The beadhead and flash wing stood out in the current, and the rubber legs gave it a lifelike action. A solid choice for nymphing.

Great for year-round use. I’ve used it in both spring and fall, and it consistently attracts fish. The hot bead adds weight without making it too heavy to cast.
