The Humpy Peacock works well in natural waters. It floats smoothly and attracts trout in riffles. The deer hair hump keeps it afloat even in the afternoon. A reliable choice for dry fly fishing.

I’ve used this fly in several streams and it performs consistently. It’s especially effective during early summer when trout are feeding on larger insects. The natural colour blends well with the environment.

Great for targeting trout in slow-moving sections. The float time is excellent, and it doesn’t sink quickly. I’ve seen fish take it on multiple occasions.
