Jonathan Jackson –
Used this hopper on a trout stream in the Rockies and caught several fish. The orange foam top stood out even in windy conditions and the tan color matched the natural insects well.
Ava Poole –
Great for early season fishing. The hopper stays low in the water and looks realistic. A reliable choice for trout in western streams.
Eric Dowd –
Fished it in a cold-water creek and saw multiple strikes. The foam top helped it stay visible and the pattern is very natural.
