Joanne Churchill –
Fished on a cold morning with overcast skies and caught two trout in a row. The fly matched the hatch perfectly and moved naturally in the current. Great detail on the wings and body.
Alan Knox –
Used it on a technical stream with strong currents. It stayed on the surface well and attracted fish when the water was still and misty. A solid choice for BWO season.
Stephen Morrison –
The emergence pattern is very realistic. I’ve used it in multiple seasons and it consistently performs well when the weather is cool and cloudy.
