This fly is ideal for attracting big fish such as bass, pike, and other predatory species in challenging water conditions.

Owen Wilson –
Fished in a muddy pond and the fly caught a large bass. The eye detail and bulk made it stand out in the water. Very effective in dirty conditions.
Fiona Gill –
Works well in murky water. The added zonker gives it more movement and attracts fish that don’t bite on standard patterns.
Joseph Bower –
Used it in a slow-moving lake with heavy silt. The fly stayed visible and triggered a big pike. Highly recommended for dirty water fishing.
