This lure works great in quiet lakes. I’ve seen trout take it consistently, especially when I add slight twitches. It’s more visible than the original Rocky Mountain pattern and stands out in the water.
Nicola Berry –
Good for ant fall fishing. The color and shape make it noticeable in open water. I used it on a morning trip and caught a few fish. A bit more visible than standard patterns.
Adrian Peters –
Highly effective in still lakes. The subtle twitching action mimics real insects and attracts fish. I’ve used it for several days now and it’s become a go-to pattern.
