Wendy Allan –
Fished during late August on the Bow River and caught several trout with this pattern. It mimics the real mayfly stage well and worked when other flies didn’t. Lightweight and easy to cast.
Matt Hudson –
Used it during a late season trip and saw good results. The spinner profile helped it stand out in the water. A bit more delicate than standard patterns, but effective in the right conditions.
Rebecca Ellison –
Perfect for late summer and fall fishing. Caught a brown trout on the Bow River with this fly. It’s a subtle pattern that works when trout are selective.
