This cicada pattern performs well in early summer when natural insects are active. It’s small and subtle, which helps when fish are spooked by larger flies. I used it as an indicator dry and saw several strikes. A reliable addition to my fly box.

Works well in surface feeding situations. The size is perfect for hopper hatches. A bit delicate, so it needs careful handling, but overall effective.
Ruth Peters –
Great for when I need a small, natural-looking cicada pattern. It mimics the real thing and fish respond well. Used it in a feeder setup and got consistent bites.
