The UV Copper Dolphin fly performs well in cold water streams. It has a natural movement that attracts coho salmon. The UV beads make it visible in low light, and the tapered tail helps with casting. I’ve used it with the Coho Crusher flasher and seen consistent bites.
Sonia Newman –
Good quality fly with solid construction. The hook holds well and the body floats naturally. Works well in early morning and late afternoon when fish are active. A bit heavy for finesse fishing, but effective in open water.
James Howard –
Fished in a river with Kokanee and it worked perfectly. The UV beads stand out in the current, and the fly stays on the water without sinking too fast. Easy to tie and maintain.
