Diane Alsop –
This fly worked well in a clear stream during late fall. I used it under a small indicator and caught several trout. The shiny bead head stood out in the water and attracted fish effectively.
Jason Allan –
Great pattern for low-water conditions. It’s visible and mimics the natural nymphs well. I’ve used it in both still and moving water with good results.
Penelope Brown –
Fished it under a foam raft in the early fall and had solid action. The flash and size made it stand out, and it caught fish consistently.
