The Harrop’s CDC Biot Dun looks very realistic and matches well in slow-moving streams. My trout caught on it during a calm morning session. The CDC wing adds a natural float that makes it stand out without being flashy.

I’ve used this fly in several different streams and it performs well in still water. The body shape is accurate and the fly holds up well under inspection. A solid choice for dry fly fishing.

Great detail in the pattern. The biot body and CDC wing give it a subtle, lifelike appearance. I caught a large brown trout on this fly during a late spring outing.
