Thunder Thighs Hopper – Umpqua
This simple little foam pattern will work as everything from a Cicada to a Hopper, Stonefly, Hellgramite or even a Cricket. It is a tasty piece of foam that hungry trout will not ignore. It has enough foam to float a dropper, but not so much that it is hard to cast or keep upright. A very sweet little treat for hungry trout.

Great little hopper that works well in both still and moving water. My trout are consistently taking it, especially during early morning and late afternoon. Easy to cast and stays upright without sinking too quickly. A reliable addition to my fly box.
Ruth Paige –
Works well as a hopper and stonefly imitation. The foam holds its shape and floats nicely. A bit stiff at first, but after a few uses it becomes more natural in the water.

Used it in a creek with fast current and it stayed upright and attracted fish. The size is just right for trout. I’ve used it for several days now and it’s still in good condition.
