The lateral scale fits perfectly on my flies and makes a noticeable difference in how the fly looks in the water. My fishing success has improved noticeably during early morning casts.

It’s a small detail, but the kinked shape really helps the fly look more natural. I’ve used it with both dry flies and nymphs and found it effective in still waters.
