Trevor Campbell –
Used this fly on a cold morning with heavy cloud cover. The imitation was spot-on and resulted in multiple strikes. Perfect for when Blue Winged Olives are active. Easy to tie and works well in fast water.
Robert Stewart –
Felt like a natural match in the stream. Caught a few trout on a technical run. The tungsten weight helps it stay in place during the drift. Slightly more expensive than other nymphs, but worth it for the results.
Colin Wilson –
This is the go-to nymph for cloudy days. I’ve used it on several streams and it consistently performs well. The split case design allows for a realistic movement and the color is accurate to the real insect.
