Used the Olive Buzzer on a quiet lake and caught several trout. The orange cheeks really stood out and seemed to trigger a response even in low visibility. A solid choice for nymph fishing.
Richard Morrison –
Felt like a natural imitation. Worked well in a slow-moving river. The olive base with orange cheeks made it look realistic. Would recommend for chironomid-based fishing.
Grace Johnston –
Great detail in the design. The orange cheeks are visible and effective even when drifting slowly. Caught a big brown trout on this pattern during a morning drift.
