Pizza Delivery Fly – Umpqua
The Pizza Delivery was originally created in Chile in 2005 as a humorous fly design for Andrew’s clients to use when fishing for trout. It became a popular choice during fishing trips in the Gunnison Gorge, Colorado, where it was used as a guide indicator fly and successfully caught fish during the salmon fly hatch. This fly has since traveled globally and has been used to catch steelhead in the Pacific Northwest and Canada, carp in Montana, and trout from Chile to Kamchatka.

I tried the Pizza Delivery fly during a trip to Montana and caught a carp with it. It worked surprisingly well despite its humorous name. The design is durable and floats well in still waters.
