The Letort Hopper performs well in late summer waters. I used it during August and caught several trout on a slow drift. The float is strong and the action mimics natural movement well.
Diana Poole –
Great for bass fishing in clear streams. I followed the strip-and-pause method exactly and saw better strikes than with other patterns I’ve tried.
Jonathan Dickens –
Highly realistic appearance. It floats steadily and stays on the surface without sinking. Worked well in a cold-water stream during early September.
