This fly works great on early season streams. The purple version catches skwallas consistently. The legs are well-defined and the float is natural. I’ve used it in hopper-dropper setups and it’s reliable.

Fished it on a cold morning and saw several hoppers take it. The tan version floats well and stays on the surface. A solid addition to my dry fly collection.
