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.
Effective rusty spinner imitation with a precise match to the rusty-brown body and translucent wings of the actual insect.

This rust color is spot-on for the post-mating mayflies. I’ve used it during Sulphur hatches and it caught several trout. The hook size 20 works well with my spinning rod and the flies stay on the water naturally.
Oliver Wright –
Great addition to my mayfly collection. The rust color is very realistic and the spinner falls well in both calm and moving streams. I caught a good number of fish during a PMD hatch with this pattern.

Solid imitation that works well in the early morning when the hatches are active. A bit more expensive than some other patterns, but the accuracy is worth it for serious fly fishing.
