Jake Bailey –
Fished it on the Bow River and got good strikes from brown trout. The golden finish looks natural and the fly sinks well without dragging. Great for nymphing in clear water.
Nicholas Ince –
Solid imitation of a stonefly nymph. The wire wrap adds weight without making it bulky. Works well in slow-moving streams where trout are feeding on nymphs.
Ella Dowd –
The detail in the golden legs and body shine makes it look authentic. Tied on a wide-gape hook, it casts smoothly and stays on the surface well during drifts.
