Adrian Metcalfe –
Used this fly during a heavy runoff event and caught two trout in a row. The tan color matched the muddy water perfectly and the action was natural. A reliable choice when other patterns don’t work.
Jessica Morgan –
Fished in a tailwater with high flow and found it to be one of the most productive flies. The hook retention was solid and it stayed on the water well during casting.
Dorothy Cornish –
Great for when the water is murky. The worm pattern worked better than any other fly I’ve tried in off-color conditions. Easy to tie and effective in practice.
