Fished this pattern at Yellowstone and got multiple strikes on the first day. The unique wing structure made it stand out in the current. Works well in both slow and moderate currents.
Luke Mills –
Used it during a dry season trip and noticed better hook-ups than typical emerger patterns. The low profile helps it stay natural in the water column.
Olivia Edmunds –
Highly effective in early morning when insects are active. The design catches the eye of wary fish that ignore standard patterns.
