D.O.S. – Beadhead
When the weather is hot, fish seek out shaded areas or deep slots where the water is cool but food remains plentiful. Getting fish to see the fly and respond is half the battle in these conditions.
Hot beads and UV materials significantly improve visibility, making the fly more noticeable to fish. Natural materials enhance the bugginess, which fish find irresistible.
The D.O.S. features a red bead combined with ice dubbing to act as an effective attractant. The traditional styled body and tail provide a realistic appearance that mimics natural insects.
