Neil Murray –
Used this fly during a late summer trip on a slow-moving stream. Trout took it immediately, even in low visibility. The ant-like appearance worked perfectly in the afternoon light. A reliable pattern for dry fly fishing.
Una Tucker –
Felt the foam version was slightly more durable than the fur one. It held up well in windy conditions. Caught a few fish on this pattern during a morning session.
Sarah Mills –
The detail in the design is spot-on. It looks like a real ant stuck in film. I’ve used it in multiple streams and it’s consistently effective when presented slowly.
