Used this during a late spring hatch and caught two trout on the first cast. The pattern sits perfectly in the film and looks natural. Great for targeting fish that prefer cripples over duns.
Austin Rees –
Felt like a solid choice for emergers. The shuck trail adds a lot of realism. Worked well in slow-moving streams where fish were selective.

Perfect match for a mayfly hatch. The 6-pack is enough for a few days of fishing. Fish reacted immediately when I presented it in the film.
