This fly worked great during a sulphur hatch on the North Fork. The bright thorax stood out and attracted multiple strikes. It’s a solid choice for rivers with active hatches.
Carl Sanderson –
Used it during a PMD hatch and saw several fish take it. The color contrast is noticeable and effective in low light conditions.
Dominic Fisher –
Caught three fish in a single hour with this fly on a clear morning. The detail in the thorax matches the natural insect well and is easy to tie.
