The UV Blue Chub fly performs well in cold water streams. It has a natural look and the UV beads make it visible in low light. I caught two coho salmon using it with a Coho Crusher flasher.
Robert Bailey –
Good quality fly with solid construction. The tapered tail helps it move naturally in the water. Works well in early morning fishing.
Bernadette Kerr –
Fished it in a steelhead run and got a solid strike. The hook holds well and the UV beads stand out in the current. Highly recommend for cold water species.
