This fly performs well in open water. The rattle draws fish in consistently, and the hook setup holds firm during retrieval. I’ve used it in both early morning and late afternoon, and it’s proven reliable.
Keith Cornish –
Great for trolling in clear waters. The glow pattern stands out, and the rattle makes it easy to detect when fish are near. A bit stiff at first, but settles in after a few casts.
Cameron Reid –
Fished in a coastal area and caught several fish with this fly. The 48-inch line gives good control, and the treble hook keeps the fly from slipping off.
