Used this fly in a quiet pond this morning and got several strikes. The zebra stripes stand out in the water and the bead head sinks fast. Perfect for early season fishing when midges are active.
Thomas MacDonald –
Fished with this nymph in a slow-moving lake and caught a large trout. The realistic body and ribbing made it look natural. Hook size 16 fits well on my rod tip.
Maria Bond –
Good imitation of midge larvae. The sink rate is fast thanks to the bead head. A bit delicate, so handle with care when storing.
Victor Newman –
Great for targeting trout in deep water. The zebra pattern is very visible and the fly stays on the bottom without floating. Works well in early morning and late afternoon.

Felt the fly was slightly more sensitive than others I’ve tried. Still effective in catching fish, especially in low-light conditions.
