This fly worked well in a clear stream during early spring. The pink and purple color stood out to the trout, and the beadhead added a nice flash. I caught two fish within 15 minutes of casting.

Great addition to my trout kit. The ice dub thorax and pink bead give it a natural look and movement. It’s especially effective in slow-moving water where fish are more cautious.

Used it in a mountain stream and saw a good response. The color combination is striking and the fly floats naturally. I’d recommend it to anyone targeting trout in varied conditions.
