Fished in a slow river this morning and caught a large brown trout on the first cast. The shine of the wingcase imitation was spot-on and the fly moved naturally in the current. Highly recommended for mayfly season.
Ella Hemmings –
Used it during a late spring outing and saw good action. The fly held up well in the water and attracted fish even in low visibility. A solid choice for emerger patterns.
Lily Mills –
Caught two fish in a row with this pattern. The way it mimics the wingcase shine is realistic and the action in the water is very natural. Great for both nymph and emerger fishing.
