Diana Powell –
Used this fly during a spring trout run on a calm lake. The hare’s ear body looked natural and the fly stayed high on the surface. Caught two trout within 30 minutes of starting.
Faith Metcalfe –
Great for early morning fishing when the water is still. The gold ribbing stands out in sunlight and trout reacted immediately. Only one fly broke during a windy session.
Grace Walker –
Perfect match for caddis hatches. The floating design keeps it visible, and the texture feels authentic. Used it with a 14 hook and it worked well in both still and moving water.
Blake Alsop –
The fly looks good, but it tends to sink slightly in heavy wind. Would work better in calm conditions. Still a solid choice for dry fly fishing.
