This fly worked great in a shallow creek. The red tail really stood out and attracted several trout. Easy to tie and matches the natural look well.
Nicholas May –
Fished in a slow-moving stream and caught a few fish. The shallow design fits perfectly in the water depth. A bit more delicate than expected but effective.
Grace Hughes –
Used it during early morning hours in a shallow pond. Fish were actively feeding and the fly stayed on the surface well. Highly recommended for shallow water.
