Christopher Newman –
This fly caught several trout on a calm morning in early summer. The details on the legs and body are very realistic and it stayed on the water well. A solid choice for hopper fishing.

I’ve used it in a few different streams and it performs consistently. The foam body holds up well in the wind and the coloration stands out in the water.
Julia Short –
Great for early season fishing. The hopper action is natural and the fly stays on the water longer than expected. Highly recommended for trout anglers.
