Poly Wing Rusty Spinner
A classic low-profile spinner pattern designed to imitate the spent female mayflies that create heavy spinner falls on the water.
Highly versatile mayfly pattern because many mayfly species transition to a rusty-brown color after mating and falling to the water. This fly is considered a universally essential pattern to match hatches like PMDs, Sulphurs, and Blue-Winged Olives.
Effectively imitates the rusty-brown body and translucent wings of the mayfly, providing a natural appearance when fished in various water conditions.

The rust color matches the actual mayfly perfectly. I used it during a Sulphur hatch and caught several trout. The hook size 22 is a good fit for medium-sized streams.
Gabrielle Reid –
Works well in both still and current water. The poly wing gives a natural flutter when fished. A reliable pattern for dry-fly imitations.

Great addition to my fly box. Matches the hatch exactly during a PMD event. Easy to tie and performs consistently in different water conditions.
