Used this fly during a spring hatch and caught two trout within an hour. The hare’s ear body looks realistic and floats well on the surface. Great for beginners and experienced anglers alike.
Trevor MacLeod –
The fly matches the natural insects well and stays visible in the water. I tied it on a size 10 hook and it worked perfectly in a calm stream. Slightly more expensive than others, but worth it.
Paul Hill –
Highly recommended for any trout angler. The gold ribbing gives it a lifelike appearance and the fly floats steadily. I’ve used it in multiple seasons and it still performs well.
Sam Dickens –
It looks good and floats well, but I noticed it doesn’t work as well in strong currents. Might need to adjust the presentation or use it in calmer waters.
