The Quill Gordon wet fly works well during early morning emergences. It’s subtle and mimics natural insects effectively. I used it in a slow-moving stream and saw several trout take it with a light tippet.

Great for targeting insects that emerge in the evening. The pattern holds up well in water and doesn’t disturb the surface. I noticed better strikes compared to other wet flies I’ve tried.

I’ve used this fly in multiple rivers and it consistently performs well during insect hatches. The detail in the design makes it look natural, and the presentation is very subtle.
