Jennifer Morrison –
The hare’s ear nymph looks authentic and matches the caddis pupa well. It casts smoothly and worked well in a slow stream. Great for emerger presentations.
Dorothy North –
Felt like a natural caddis pupa when fished. The soft hackle holds up well during a few hours of casting. Would recommend to anglers targeting trout in streams.
Ava Graham –
Used it in a morning trout stream and caught a fish on the first cast. The fly moved naturally and stayed on the water without breaking.
