This fly performs exceptionally well in clear streams. The extended body gives it a natural drift and it floats beautifully. I’ve used it for several days and it holds up well under different water conditions.
Ella Bell –
The color and action match the Green Drake mayflies I’ve seen in the field. It’s a bit more visible than other dry flies, which helps when fishing in low light. Only minor wear after a few casts.

I’ve tried several imitations, but this one stands out for its realistic movement and presentation. The hand-tied quality shows in the detail and durability.

Great for targeting Green Drake hatches. The parachute post helps it stay visible without sinking too quickly. Works well in moderate currents.

Highly recommended for anglers targeting mayfly hatches. The fly floats smoothly and imitates the natural behavior of Green Drake mayflies very well.
